john.p said...: That's a strong quote. It seems intuitive at first, but then you think about how our consumer society works. Buy more (complexity), buy it now (no patience) and it's what you need (don't consider others). This begs some thought. Thanks for the quote and the nice visualization.; March 31, 2009 at 8:12 AM

Aimee said...: Love your work! My son took an art class a couple years ago and his teacher introduced them to ATCs. He loves making them! He's only 11,though, so they are not quite as professional as yours. :-) I'll have to show him your blog!; March 31, 2009 at 5:15 PM
PAK ART said...: I just attempted my first zentangle and posted it on my blogsite. I just love black and white - so strong. I agree with the rest, these would be great silver medallions. I'm thinking earrings.; March 31, 2009 at 7:36 PM
