OPENFOOTAGE. Art 1. Optical Design. Sierra Ink. Zentangle® Hi All, I know this isn't watercolor, although I do combine it with watercolors sometimes, but I'm answering the question that was raised in this morning's "WASH" as to what zentangle® is.
I've become a Certified Zentangle Teacher, or CZT, since I used to hang around here in WC and I just wanted to post this somewhere where those who asked the question as to what zentangle® is would see the answer. (My making anywhere near beginning of the "Daily Wash" thread is a rarity.) I imagine this would normally be posted in a "Mixed Media" forum. Please accept my apologies for this one-time breach of WC etiquette. Yes, as someone said, and to put it simply, zentangle® is a meditative form of art using repetitive patterns. Tangles are basically done on 3.5" X 3.5" tiles with a micron pen, no artistic talent needed. And here is a zentangle® inspired piece of artwork, or as it's called in the tangling world, a ZIA, that I began by dropping watercolors onto Strathmore bristol paper. Arts and Crafts.

Lee White Illustration News. Paint Art, Gallery Art ,Painters ,Picture, Image. Jimbo's Japan: Art Nouveau アール・ヌーヴォー. This semester I am taking a class called 'History of Graphic Design' and while that may sound dreadfully boring to most people, (it did to me) it is rapidly becoming my favorite class thus far at Oklahoma State University.
In the class we are basically zipping through history and trying to pick up the important factoids about each specific style of graphic design. It's a once-a-week night class, so we really have to get through a lot of material each week very swiftly, but this class, more than any other so far, is opening me up to a whole new world (cue Aladdin soundtrack) of interesting art styles and inspiration. Right now, I want to tell you about Art Nouveau.The Art Nouveau movement started in Paris, France around the turn of the 20th Century. There was a sort of "cafe culture" in Paris at the time, in which people spent much time relaxing at outdoor patio cafes, seeing dancing shows, going to the theater and just enjoying the splendors of a modern urban lifestyle.
