By Linda Farmer, CZT This week’s String is shared by tangler Carolyn Koesters for your creative enjoyment.
Bear in mind that Zentangle® strings are guidelines. You can use a string exactly as it is or adapt it to suit as your Zentangle grows. Start with the string as it’s shown then, as you go, combine sections if your tangles want to, or divide a section into smaller ones. Go with the flow and enjoy. Please help our community’s String resource grow by sending me yours to share. If you’d like to share your completed tiles for other to see, add them to the TanglePatterns String group on flickr (see the link below). Right click and SAVE to your computer; then print. Lightly pencil the string on your tile and you’re good to go tangling. Related Links. Zentangles... Zendoodles... Zendrawing... Oh my! Zentangles / Zen Tangle Style Patterns & Designs.....

Doodle/Zentangle. For my fellow tangle junkies: some thoughts on collecting and organizing tangle patterns. I'm a perfectionist.
I didn't always know this about myself, or maybe I wasn't always one and I'm just settling into my own shoes a little as I get older. But "ehh.... good enough" is probably not something you'll hear me say. Because if I'm working on something I care about, and I know it's not the best I am capable of, I have to force myself to not redo every little thing and make it as good as I know it could be (and yes, I do realize that this occasionally makes me a little bit annoying). For example, I've attempted a few methods for collecting and organizing tangle patterns... index cards, flip cards, graph paper pads, Moleskine notebooks, different-sized journals, a small binder with page protectors, et cetera. First I had to let go of the idea that any journal I created would/could ever resemble Maria's... that just wasn't realistic for me.

My Creative Doodle Patterns The patterns below are designed to fill a large or small shape.
With most of my Doodle Pattern Distructions I show the basic outline. How you choose to decorate each pattern can give you a large variety of pattern outcomes. Solid Fill, lines, spots, dots, diagonal stripes, adding colour and shading can all change the look of a pattern. The options are endless. Zentangle Mandalas. I am teaching my drawing students how to design mandalas and fill them with zentangle patterns.
As usual, I enjoy making examples of the project too. Here are some that I have completed using pen and graphite. With the exception of the circle, which is traced from a cut paper template, everything else is drawn freehand. The beauty of this method is that you learn to use spatial judgement as you map out the pattern areas, turning the paper and repeating elements as you develop the symmetrical design. Anything is possible, one pen stroke at a time. Tangling. Zentangles and Doodling Art. Zentangle - Time To Tangle. Refresher. April 4th, 2014 Buried Treasure!

Symbols have universal as well as personal meaning. When you are stuck for an answer to a problem or looking for creative innovation, the technique of doodling will unleash the hidden symbolic powers of the unconscious mind. Symbols are a universal means of expression. Regardless of culture or geographic location, certain symbols have similar if not exactly the same meaning across the human spectrum.
Carl Jung pioneered the investigation of symbols as archetypal attributes of the collective unconscious. Doodling essentially allows our intuitive feelings to express themselves in pictorial symbolic form. Doodling for creativity.
