Zentangle Inktober Tangles Day 10 – FINERY / FINEGOGH

Zentangle Inktober Tangles Day 10 presented a two-fer.

The challenge started with FINERY from Zentangle HQ, but also gave the option to include FINEGOGH (ArtAmuse), a variation of FINERY. I think the organizers meant to do one or the other, but I’m an over-achiever, so I did both!

Today’s Tangle

Inktober Tangle Day 10 Finery

FINEGOGH is a cross between FINERY and VERDIGOGH (also from Zentangle HQ), so I put all three in my tangle. That’s VERDIGOGH peeking out from behind the other two. Of the three tangles here, VERDIGOGH is the only one I’ve worked with. When I look at patterns for my own use or for classes, FINERY just never made the cut for some reason. It turns out that I kind of like it!

The real start here – at least for me – is FINEGOGH. Nature-inspired tangles are my jam. I love these square-ish leaf shapes punctuated by the little fluff lines in between. The challenge – as I found here – is not losing those fluff lines in the tangle. My VERDIGOGH leans away from them on purpose!
