In honor of this day and the Pinwheels for Peace project, The Diva has challenged us all to create our own pinwheel. I was afraid that I was going to miss the deadline but I got in just under the wire! This was a fun and new way to create some zentangle. I chose to actually create a pinwheel and I found myself thinking more about what patterns to put together and how they would translate to a 3D page.
I ended up cutting a square of watercolor paper to tangle on. I am happy to report that my pinwheel even spins! I took it outside on this cloudy day to try and get a photo and the pinwheel kept spinning in the breeze. I just wish I had an outside pinwheel to tangle now.

Beautiful patterns! I saw a lawn full of spinning pinwheels at a school today. They really make a statement.
