I think this combination creates a marvelously stylish result. Great skill on display here.

Fabulous - very clever and the different techniques are working brilliantly together. What size is it?

Wow. You have patience. So incredibly effective though.

Must admit had to look up Zentangle! I agree with previous comments, shows great style, patience and skills, and a lovely striking result.

Amazing work, and a lot of skill to achieve it. The painting is really very good.

An amazing, original result of your combination of mediums. Love the eyes and patterns on the fabric.

Thank you so much Lewis, Heather, Diana, Tessa, Paul, Carole and Christine for your lovely comments. Sorry that you’re not a fan of Pointillism Cesare but sometimes everyone needs a change of direction, it teaches new skills and widens the artistic experience. The drawing is approx. 29cms x 22.5cms Heather.
