Finally - my daughter uploaded the pics of the zentangles I have been doing--
The one I am going to show you is the first hand project one. Now that I am looking
at it - it does not look as sharp as I thought but it is my first try at this zentangle artform
so - the more I do - the better things will get--
Here it is:
Unfortunately the paper is not as white here as it is in person - bad lighting in this
room - but I think you get the idea of it all -
this is what a zentangle is:

What is Zentangle?
Zentangle is an easy to learn method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns. It is a fascinating new art form that is fun and relaxing. It increases focus and creativity. Zentangle provides artistic satisfaction and an increased sense of personal well being. Zentangle is enjoyed by a wide range of skills and ages and is used in many fields of interest.
What is a Zentangle? In a word, a doodle. A structured, contained doodle. The term 'Zentangle' was invented by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas when, one day, Maria described her experience, as she created her art, as feeling timeless, free and engendering a sense of deep well-being'. Rick recognised that she was in a meditative state and so Zentangles were born.

Very neat Ellie! I just read about zentangles in the most recent Cloth Paper Scissors. I hope you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Kelly
I love these zentangles. I just haven't wanted to spend the big bucks to buy the kit. But I may have to because I like the results so much. I love to doodle.
