The Evolution of Tangled Records

“I’ve come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint—and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.”-Oprah Winfrey

​My last blog inspired me to write about the progression of my work. I’ve always been attracted to shapes, patterns, and abstract designs.  I often find myself doodling on paper while I’m supposed to be doing something else. I find it very therapeutic and relaxing. Recently, I found an old computer hard drive that had the original drawings that started my journey of becoming the artist I am today. I was deeply blown away how far I have come!
 
Back in collage, I was a graphic design major for 3 years and hated it. I enjoyed the design classes but when it came to drawing people and real things, I lost interest. I decided last minute to combine my art credits into a fine arts degree. I had to take one more elective to qualify, so I took an art therapy class. This class had seriously changed my life. I discovered that just because I was a failed art student, it didn’t mean I failed as an artist.  I was introduced to zentangles and how to make art with patterns. After I was done with the class I still continued to make art on my own while I took an on a second major.
 
Here is my progress over the past 10 years:
 
2008:
I used to draw a lot of patterns and abstract designs during class and then I would turn these drawings into something bigger. At times, if I didn’t like how sharpie looked on paper, I would Photoshop the drawings to clean them up.
2012:
After working on other art projects throughout the years, I went back to zentangle designs. I didn’t want to draw on paper anymore, so I found some broken pieces of dry wall in my apartment attic. (Please click on the image to get a better look)

​2016:
I took 3 years off from creating art (Please see pervious blog, “Why Vinyl Records?). Here are the first few records I created with plain white acrylic paint and sharpie markers.
 ​2017:
Here are the first colored records. I experimented with a variety of markers that would work on top of the spray paint.
​2018:
Here are my present day records!
I still have a lot more to learn and hope to experiment with new tangles to incorporate into my future work.  Thank you all for stopping by and please stay tune for more updates.

This is awesome! Keep up the kick ass work. Drywall was always one of my favorite thing to paint on too. I always loved painting murals. I’m super proud of how far you have come. These albums are amazing!
