I drew this ZIA a couple of weeks ago and several people showed an interest and asked me for the name of the tangle. I didn't have a name and didn't have a step out.
Here is the step out to my newest tangle named 'Pines' (I really wanted to name it Alpine or Alps but those were both taken) I have no idea what those patterns look like as I couldn't find them when I searched, so am hoping my pattern is different.
In this step out I started with pencil (not traditional Zentangle style, I know) and then I have showed it using pen and both styles look fine.
Thank you for your interest - I would love to see your interpretations.

Close up of variations
The first one was a work in progress for a few days. I wasn't happy with the direction it was heading, however not one to leave a piece unfinished I kept at it and completed it this afternoon. Perhaps I should have shaded it but because it is drawn with a blue coloured pen I was hesitant to use a blue coloured pencil for shading.

An aunt of mine wanted me to show her how to tangle, here is my piece and unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of hers. She quite liked it in the end but was very concerned with her shaky lines - I thought she did very well considering. I stressed to her its not about the finished product but the process is what it's all about.
this one was finished early on in the week and I just hadn't got around to taking a photo and posting it. The main pattern is from a design on some scatter cushions I saw in a magazine so I'm not sure if there is a tangle like it out there. I also used Rixty, Fandango and 2 of my newbie tangles Cameo and Bellamy.
I hope you had a pleasant weekend - as for me, back to work tomorrow after 10 days break :)
