Five new tangles were released since the last update, plus new Youtube tutorials and step-outs for older tangles. There's a lot to cover.
In last Thursday's post on Bales I mentioned that my tangleations were simple and didn't include shading. That prompted some requests on how I might shade the tangles, so Bales is back this week (rah! rah!) - this time with a bit of shading. I used a grey Fabrico marker (instead of my preferred pencil) in the scanned image below. The shaded areas show up a bit better ~ A few notes about shading tangles ~ * there is no 'wrong way' to shade a pattern - the way you shade it is the 'right way' :) * the traditional methods for shading used in drawing can be a guide, but are not hard and fast rules in tangling (i.e. a light source coming from one direction, casting a shadow in the opposite) * shading illustrated for a tangle is merely a suggestion - use your own creative license * start light as you shade - you can always add more as you go along * photograph your tile before and after shading to better appreciate the definition and depth shading provides * most of all, have fun Here are the two charts side-by-side for easier comparison ~ ENJOY!

Maria Thomas' dramatic Cubine is featured in IAST #146 this week. (Click here for all of the delightful details.) When I teach Cubine in my classes, I make one little adjustment to Maria's original step out. My students appreciate it, so I thought I'd draw up a Tips for Tangling for you ~ In drawing the diagonal lines before the inner squares, the angles line up no matter how straight or curved the initial grid is. ENJOY!
