Hi and welcome back to the Chrissie Murphy Designs Blog. This week’s Magnified Fragment is C14. So without further ado, let’s get into it, have a look at the enhancer we’ll be using. I’ve also included links to some resources you might find helpful for this week.
This Week’s Magnified Fragment is C14
Here’s a quick sketch of what the fragment looks like as a reference for you.
This week’s Magnified Fragment Enhancer is to Play with Perfs!
The Zentangle Terminology page of the TanglePatterns.com website describes Perfs as:
A tangle enhancer consisting of tiny dots or orbs/circles used to fill or embellish spaces.
When I saw this weeks fragment, I thought oh my goodness! What on earth can we do as an enhancer! I was stumped…. But then I thought Perfs are the perfect way to enhance this a fragment.
So this week, I am keen to see you Play with Perfs! Let’s get perfing!!
Some resources to help you with this week’s Magnified Fragment
A great example of Perfs can be seen here. The blog post is from Zentangle® and it identifies Perfs very well.
Here are some more examples. Meredith Guy-Villon has used Perfs beautifully to fill the space between some Mooka Stems in this wonderful Magnified Fragment.
And check out the glorious border of Perfs used by Youko Nakajima in the tile below.
And one more amazing piece by Sharon Wong, CZT where Perfs have been magnified as well! Rows and rows of lines have been filled with Perfs.
You get the idea, Play with Perfs as you enhance your fragment this week.
