The Real Negative Space Entry

Well, I ran with the idea of using a tangle as negative space, and this is what I ended up with. I think it works!

Hollibaugh is base and then I filled things up with b'tweed, bunso, niuroda, crescent moon, hypnotic, paradox, nipa, fur balls (the little swirly things) and the one in the small triangle with receding arcs. (Which I can't currently remember but I've used it a lot)

There's some tipple here, too, in a few places.

And shading. When I added the rounded shading to the hollibaugh, it came alive. I'm happy with it.

  1. Using Hollibaugh as a string is a great idea. You turned it into a fun project. And a great way to showcase all of the other tangles as well. Well done!
