Zendalas

I think I have finished the zendalas for the swap. I worked feverishly played all morning to get them done as I thought the deadline was April 15, but I went to double check and I have until April 25 to get them to the leader of the swap.

Here they are:













Can I get an honest opinion? Would you be happy to receive one of these in a swap if you were sending 6 of your own and got one in trade? Is there any one that needs more? needs to be axed and another made to replace it? Be honest! I can take it......

And, just because I couldn't help myself, I made a zendoodle in Photoshop just for fun!

Goodness, I just looked at the clock. It is 2:09 and I haven't done anything except work, work, work, play, play, play in my art room since I got up. Time to make some flavored coffee and work a crossword  puzzle, I think!

Please give me some feedback about the zendalas......

xoxo

  1. Vicki, they look great! I love the first one with the hidden hearts and words and the fish made me smile. I'm sorry I didn't sign up for the second swap, I would be honored to get one. The others will love it too!

  4. Vicki! Nothing to worry about - they are awesome! My favorite is the 3rd one down, but I also love the fishie one and the butterfly one. I'd be happy to have any of these in my collection!

  8. Oh yes, mail them. I love Eileen's comparison with Alice in Wonderland - it's right on! I don't know which one is my favorite - I think you did a great job on all of them - each one unique and special all by itself! hugs, nancy

  9. Never seen art quite like it! It's a bit out there but totally rad, I'm sure all the cool kids are raving about it, I know I am :)

  10. You said you could take it so I will be honest. There are two little tweaks I would make and then I would love them all!

    The first tweak is on the first one shown.See how heavy the right side is compared to the left side? If you could bolden up the left side a touch it would make a nice piece a terrific one.

    The second tweak is on the third one down. You've colored all the spokes a nice deep color except one. I know it is white but it comes across as forgotten.

    Those really are just two little nit picky things. These are wonderful. Since you love the photoshop so much why didn't you make your zendalas with it? You could print them out on heavier paper and cut them out. I don't think that would be cheating but maybe others would.

    I like that photoshopped one as much as the others. I think anyone would love to get one of these in the swap even if you don't change a thing.

  13. You really can be proud of these fantastic pieces of art! I find all of them honestly good and wonderfully colorful! However, the first one clearly is my favorite, I absolutely love it! (I got the "Alice in Wonderland" association too :) ).
    Whoever gets them will love them, believe me! ♥

  16. These are great, Vicki! I especially like the fish, the butterfly, and the first one. They are all great, but if I were going to pick on one, I'd say the last one needs a little more detail. But, that's only if I were going to pick on one! ;D
