Zendoodle Day 6/11 . With a Bit of Colour

May 14, 2013 By: Aggie2 Comments

I’ve gotten myself into a orange frenzy today!

I just can’t stop eating oranges at the moment.  I’ve got Nippy’s navel oranges and their rather delicious. But I like to peel my oranges when  I eat them at home.  It brings me back to my childhood days, when i was a little girl and my mum would peel oranges (and she still does) and feeds them to me 🙂

So, today’s Zendoodle is orange inspired.

But there’s a little orange twist to today’s Zendoodle.  I decided to add some colour, just to experiment.

I had seen a few coloured ones and I wasn’t too sure if I liked them, but I knew I definitely preferred the black and white though.

I went to Jackson’s Art Supplies and bought some permanent ink (apparently those “other ” ones that look like they’re permanent fade after a while).

I’m not sure if I like this one at all.  But my Rupert (my husband’s alias – he’s always wanted to be a Rupert in a fiction novel) really likes this orange inspired Zentangle.

What do you think? Colour or no colour?

Or maybe I could try a different colour.

    Great to try something different with colour but I’m in agreeance with you, there’s something “Zen” about the harmony of black and white!

      I completely agree with you Li-Sa. There’s a zen-ness about keeping things simple in black and white. I think there’s a time and place for colour but I don’t think it’s for me.

Hi I’m Aggie

I'm a writer, artist and blogger. In my previous life I was a psychologist. Exploring life and happiness through writing, sketching, food, travel, and people has taught me to seek joy in everything I do and be grateful for what I have. I have a playful curiosity. I like to rock climb for fun, write to tell stories, share my thoughts and insights, and sketch from daily life embracing everyday-ness .
My mission is to live authentically and mindfully everyday, and to live on purpose with passion.
If you would like to connect, I'd love to hear from you. More about Aggie ...
