And I didn't even do it

 

Hope this works

 

In case it doesn't I posted the pictures. This bowl was done by a guy who has been following my youtube channel. He was really taken by the "basketbowl" video and wanted to do his own version. I think he knocked it out of the park. A little different interpretation than what I did but outstanding in every regard.

Don't know what I'm doing

closed FB group.....try again.

Outstanding.  You both should be proud.

Very wonderful

That's beautiful work. He should be proud. And so should you for inspiring him.

why did you settle for a little???

Awesome!

 

I go cross eyed just looking at the pictures!

that is just awesome! 

 

I'm a little like Lew, I started seeing things the longer I looked at it.

Makes you want to ask the question, "Howdoyadothat?"

Kevin. Let me stress, that one is not mine and I'm not sure exactly what tips Ron used. When I do my bowls I use mostly a skew tip and a spoon shader.  I posted a video on my youtube channel of doing a basket weave bowl and he used it as a guide to do his. It is somewhat time consuming but much easier than a person would think. It's not a drawing so much as a repeating pattern. I devised the pattern using zentangle art principles. If you look closely, for most of the bowl there are only two different lines that repeat over and over, a vertical line and a wavy line, of course putting the lines in the right place is important.

 

 

 

Thanks for the video... I see I got one more thing to try this summer...

This piece of Zentangle would make a nice decoration on a plain pine box. But, I'd cheat and use the laser.

Gene, that is a variation on what is probably my favorite zentangle pattern, "phicops in a circle". Without doubt, it is the pattern I've used most often on my bowls. I also created a DXF of it so I could burn it with a laser but always do it by hand as I just enjoy drawing it. The fill in the segments is interesting but to my eye it loses much of the 3D effect created by shading. It's typical of zentangle patterns in it's simplicity, three little arcs comprise the whole pattern.

Very nice, Steve.
