2026 Weekend Tangles: Paradox Reversed & Crescent Moon

Hello my friends!

Our next weekend project features this dramatic optical illusion. It's Paradox Reversed by Anselm Peter from Germany. Although simple in theory, this tangle requires a bit of focus. It really helps to count your pen strikes, first in one direction, and then in the other. Think: 1...2...3...4.

There's very little shading with this one, so we'll add a simple border of Crescent Moon by Zentangle® and enhance it with tiny hearts. Enjoy!

With Love & Light,
Nana
