Zentangle Challenge #10-Open Spaces

I'm still new at zentangles, but I discovered a challenge blog, http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/ , a couple of days ago on the blog of a member (I'm sorry I don't remember whose) of the Everyday Matters drawing group that I belong to, and I thought I'd like to try the challenge. It's hosted by a certified zentangle teacher, and there's some great work on it. I already had this one started on an art journal page, so I thought I'd start the challenges with it.

This one is untitled, but I used a black Zig marker on a watercolor paper (textured) that had background colors and patterns painted in liquid acrylics on it. Sorry about the holes down the side, but I had already put it in my journal. :/

Here I go to share it in the challenge! I hope it fits the criteria and the subject ok. I loved doing it! :)

    What a nice zentangle. The zen must be the peace it gives while doing it.

    I'm terrible at zentangles and actually find them stressful! LOL

    Yours is quite nice! I like it, especially with that background!
