Diva Challenge #189 - UMT Yuma

This week is the UMT (Use My Tangle) Challenge. This is Laura's 189th Challenge. The Pattern is YUMA by Tina Akua Hunziker (CZT). Tina has given us a wonderful, interesting, and fun to draw Pattern.  I chose to use one of her Variations of Yuma. It took a while to draw as the weighted lines required patience and close attention to detail. I really liked the final result.

The coloring was colored pencil and a touch of Red Pigma Micron.

Patterns used:

1-Yuma - Tina Akura Hunziker
2-Hitched - Heidi Sue W.
3-HulaBerry - Julie Evans.
4-Luv-A - Sharon Caforio
5-In-a-pod - Zentangle®

Tile Size: 3.5 x3.5 inches.



Thanks to all the folks who took the time to leave a comment on last weeks challenge. You are all awesome and I appreciate each of you.

  2. That's an excellent way to use Yuma and the way you've created depth is amazing. (I like the bunch of grapes too, is it wrong that they make me think of wine?) The gentle colours work well too and are set off by the heavier black in some areas. Very nice, kinetic tile.

  7. THis is amazing...your thick lines make this pattern very special indeed. It has a strength to it...wait...I see what you did there. That's a terrific treatment of Hitched, too! ha!
    You know, the tile as a whole reminds me of a Moroccan wedding. It is joyous and dignified, with feast written all over it! well done.

  8. David, you did a great rendition of Yuma. I really like the gold color with the highlights (sparkle) and you gave it lots of space to breathe. Have a brilliant, golden day! cstocks/1xeritas

  16. Beautiful drawing, with such attention to the color touches.
    I love the "Fruit" hanging in the upper left, and I love the "Scenic" feel of the right-hand side.
    Very "airy" feeling
