zentangle: spiral paradox

I love paradox though it usually takes me a while to find my rhythm with it.  But I've never used a spiral string and this very angular tangle didn't seem to want to fill the string easily.  None-the-less, I managed to find a way.  The first one is very literal and without much fanfare or interest.  The second one was a little braver and more interesting I think (looks like tumbling paradoxes).

I like the defined spiral in your first, but I love the way you shaded your tumbling paradox, and the choice of tangles you used in the second. It reminds me of my spring garden clean up yesterday (including snail shells!)
