Freehand Space-filling Patterns 2: Straight Spirals

[@SaintTrinianz]

This is a lovely two dimensional representation of intersecting vortices or wormholes, connecting disparate galaxies. Well done, Faerie Freehand!

[@vicciewen7986]

Been watching you since last night…not continuously cuz how boring would THAT be? But here and there and I absolutely LOVE your teachings, comments and outcomes!!! You are Fabulous!!! Thank you! I enjoy them sooooo much!!!

[@davidnicholls100]

thank you for saying so Vicci, glad to be of service ;-)

[@davidgoodwin6522]

It’s taken me 72 years to find this thanks so much you made an old man happy

[@davidnicholls100]

Slow and steady wins the race! You got there in the end though, David!! Thanks for your comment. (from one 72 year old man to another!)

[@Khamomil]

David, you're the man! Why don't they teach us this kind of things in art class in school? It's so satisfying to fill up a blank space without years of training. It helps relieve stress and could reduce the crime rate.

[@davidnicholls100]

I don't know, Khamomil, probably because they don't know! Teach it to your friends, it's easy! You'll impress them!! pa Pass the link on! thanks for your kind comments, David

[@atapeya]

The Nutcracker theme sounds so clever with Magic Fairy's work!!!! Thank you a lot. I really enjoy learning from your tutorials. You are a really gifted teacher and it's a pleasure to see you teach.

[@davidnicholls100]

[@davidnicholls100]

Roy G thanks Roy, I hope it was of some use to you

[@rabbishekelstein]

I like to mirror them when I draw them in a grid. It yields an incredible pattern!

[@salinaroberta9399]

Drawing alongside your videos is better than therapy

[@davidnicholls100]

What a lovely thing to say, Salina (but I think it's me that needs the therapy!) Comments like that make it all worthwhile, thank you. Davidxxx

[@riverotter100]

[@davidnicholls100]

riverotter100 I'm very flattered. Riverotter, thank you for saying so! d

[@jenniferlang5294]

Another great tutorial, David. I love childishly simple, especially when demonstrated by a child.....my 7 year old granddaughter blinds me with science almost every day!!

[@davidnicholls100]

Jennifer Lang thanks Jennifer

[@jenniferlang5294]

Credit where credit is due, David. I enjoy your videos, especially since I've realised that, with a little help from you, I can draw these designs too!

[@nancygragg5695]

Okay, it's so easy an adult can do it. How about an old lady of 84?? I've watched all of the space-filling one today, Merry Christmas. Earlier this year I work through the celtic design, think I'll go back toit

[@davidnicholls100]

Well done, Nancy! Merry Christmas to you too ;-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oF6qcqmXl9V-q6c

[@debrakugler9359]

My pleasure 😊

[@raulxcrespo]

Oh my god, that's so crazy, nice job

[@davidnicholls100]

Glad you liked it, Sodufh! ;-)

[@rabbishekelstein]

INCREDIBLE

[@tobiaswehrhan]

Technical name for these patterns is “curves of pursuit.” The straight lines are tangent to the curve of pursuit that spirals inward.

[@davidnicholls100]

thanks for telling me.

[@beatekummetz5959]

It is the same as Zentangle. It will become a very good effect, if you put shaddows in it.

[@yasminkarcher9419]

Don't worry about attention spans, we can click off. Don't mean to sound rude by that. Great video by the way, really like this kind of art, especially the cross drawing that wrapped around itself, that was awesome! Keep up the good work, God bless you and your family.

[@davidnicholls100]

Thanks for taking the trouble to write, Yasmin. I'm glad you found my videos useful! :-)

[@malahamavet]

"This is so childishly simple that even an adult can do it"😁😂🤣 I love how I don't expect such simple things to transform into such complicated ones. Also y love the fairy

[@davidnicholls100]

Thank you fro saying so - you've made my day! (pass it on if you can!)

Thank you , Mr. Nicolls! Enjoying your tutorials. Do you have a website? Sincerely, Marian D.

[@davidnicholls100]

no, Mariana, I don't. I let it lapse, sorry! Glad you're enjoying them. Stay subscribed, I put other videos up intrmettently

[@linibranco3070]

Make more of these, please. I will give you all my attention. Are you from the UK? Did I hear a rooster?

[@davidnicholls100]

Lini Branco Yes, I live in the UK, in a hen house!

[@linibranco3070]

I'm in California. I've been drawing the celtic knots, hearts and I'm going to try the circle. Don't feel pressured to draw a nautilus shell. But, I would watch your videos if they were 24 hours long. Lini.

[@patriciachantrain2820]

tres beau modele merci beaucoup

[@davidnicholls100]

You're welcome, Patricia :-)

[@kethwintham344]

The fairy's "ok" made me lose my shit. I was so not expecting it...

[@Pobs81]

Thank you for sharing

[@patriciacreatecraftbust5665]

Would you be willing to demonstrate a flower of life? I get lost before it's complete!

[@davidnicholls100]

Patricia create /craft Bust what do you mean by 'flower of life' ?

[@patriciacreatecraftbust5665]

David Nicholls hi. Thanks so much for getting back to me. Flower of life comes from the seed of life and is 'spiritual ' pattern. Drawn with a compass. Quite a few examples on KZbin but not clear enough for me! But I don't want to put you to any trouble, really. You've already taught me the easy way to draw a 'straight line circle. I've already passed the knowledge on to my daughter!

[@mr.musiclinkan6998]

Nice broooo

[@davidnicholls100]

Thanx man!!! ;-)

[@gafoorjunidrawings9606]

Nice

[@davidnicholls100]

Thanks

[@MzValerie]

The name of this design is called “paradox”

[@davidnicholls100]

is it? who named it? why?

[@MzValerie]

Thanks for replying. In the world of ‘Zentangles’ in which there are countless tutorials that particular pattern is called a Paradox. Probably because it creates curved lines using only straight lines. I do not know who named it. However I am new to the Zentangle world and Celtic design for that matter. Keep up the great tutorial. I am learning so much.

[@elouahabisaid6573]

Wow

[@davidnicholls100]

;-) !!!

[@ReneeW59]

This is a Zentangle pattern called "Rick's Paradox."

[@davidnicholls100]

It's hundreds of years old and existed well before 'Rick' claimed it as his paradox or someone decided to invent the word 'Zentangle' as a marketing ploy!!!!!!! Thanks for your comment Renee ;-)

[@dillardparker7546]

zentangle geometric form--society formed around it.

[@davidnicholls100]

Dillard Parker i dont know what a zentangle geometric form society is, sorry, could you explain please?

[@henrymulane116]

You should give the final art away to a subscriber :D

[@taylorsrighteoustalks1279]

"This is so easy an adult can do it".....that made no sense

[@davidnicholls100]

It is what's called irony!

[@stanag5056]

vau

[@emjay3212]

Oh my God. You stole a Zentangle (TM) pattern. They have a nasty dispute with another woman who stole their trademarked designs I was reading about on their website last week. As well as stealing their square spiral, you have also stolen their invention of the line.

[@elouahabisaid6573]

Nice

[@davidnicholls100]

thanks Elouahabi !! ;-)
