One of the most wonderful elements of Zentangle is the beauty, simplicity, creativity and unique potential of the tangles (patterns) themselves. If you haven't already read about what a Zentangle is, go to the Zentangle website to find out. I'm a qualified (now retired) graphic designer who, when I was working in the industry, thought of myself as a designer rather than an 'artist.' In an effort to explore artistic creativity purely for my own enjoyment, I started learning Chinese brush painting - a very meditative artform. From there my journey led me to calligraphy, a unique combination of the ability to write and draw.
When I finally discovered Zentangle, I quickly discovered two very important things: A Zentangle is never 'right' or 'wrong.' The very simplicity of tangles makes them clever, deliberative, meditative & full of infinite potential for more creativity! This is one of the many and wonderful unique qualities of Zentangle art.

And if you draw the same pattern by following the grid, you end up with the pattern in a circular form. Here is a video that shows the process.

Zentangle Classes « Blue Twig Studio. 30 Jul I had every intention of doing a blog post about the Zentangle® classes as I taught them.
Each class would have its own special blog post. *sigh* Obviously that did not happen. But, no worries, I will catch you up to date with all the fun tiles made by my students. I have tried to keep my classes small and intimate as I feel more connected to the students that way. Hope you enjoy the show. You can find out more about Zentangle at www.zentangle.com.
