Joey's Weekly Challenge #116; Circular String with Flux

This last week, I started doing a series of circular tiles; 

some Zendalas, but not all. Imagine my surprise when 

this week Joey embarked on a new series of challenges;

using circular strings. So I felt right at home with it.

This is the first:

 

 And the suggested tangle is Flux.

I used Rick's version of Flux, and a little bit of Tipple:

At first I was going to fill in the background, 

but I finally decided that I really like the negative space.

On rereading Joey's post, I noticed that she was planning

to do the whole series on brown circle tiles, 

for a Renaissance look. I really like that idea, 

so I did a second tile on a beige background:

 I'm quite happy with both tiles, but I do favor the beige.

 

Take a look at Joey’s site to see the other entries,
and maybe try one yourself.
