February 1 (finally!)"Tile•A•Day" Zentangle



I am going to attribute yesterday's missing post to having had enough of January! Here is a recent Zendala illustrating an attempt at "fungees" that went astray.

I saw a tree on a walk today and when I thought about drawing it, "Mysteria" came to mind....

January 18 "Tile•A•Day" Zentangle

Thought I would share the results of yesterday's Tangle Club. Our lovely club organizer, Pam, suggested we draw our strings with our eyes shut, then make a list of each of our favorite tangle patterns. And away we drew....

January 17 "Tile•A•Day" Zentangle


Early start today.  Tangle Club this afternoon! Does anyone else have a tangle club they belong to?  One of my students started this - we get together for a couple of hours a month, enjoy each others company and tangle. Just fun - I love that I can sit with the group and tangle.  I have met so many nice people through Zentangle!
Not to change the subject, but isn't the snow pretty on the trees this morning?

I hope this snowstorm is not creating any big problems for anyone...take it slow.

 One way to warm up to color is to work monochromatically. You keep the decisions to a minimum with one color...until it is time to find an appropriate background! :o) Which do you like best? Top? Middle? or Bottom?

And the winner is....Abby!
It was a fun morning at the Contoocook Farmer's Market. Here is the tangle I drew at the easel and raffled off.

January 11 "Tile•A•Day" Zentangle

Today's tile was actually a scrap of card stock upon which I had been playing with the pattern "Diva Dance" some weeks ago. It has been pushed around on my desk all this time and it caught my eye this afternoon. I thought, "Why not!?" First tracing the outline of an actual Zentangle tile around the swirls I had drawn, I continued to work backwards adding the dots and frame. Then it was time to move forward and I completed the pattern and then quickly decided black blobs would be something fun to try. It then occurred to me to blend the smaller black blobs along the outer edge of the "diva dance" into the blob border, to make it "flow." Shading and highlighting finished it. "Different for me," was my husband's comment.
Happy Tangling!

Took time at lunch to start my tile. I was in town and thought I needed a fast lunch, and then opted to slow down. Any one figure out where I ate? :0)

January 7 "Tile•A•Day" Zentangle


The day started out with a long checklist and denial!  My students know that I believe a busy day requires meditation, and a very busy day requires double! Today is just a typical busy Monday with a checklist for the week staring at me and I told myself I didn't have the time.  With lunch time approaching, I grabbed a tile and sat down.  I set a timer as well to keep myself from my other problem area of getting way off track.
I picked a check mark for my string - couldn't get that list out of my head so I decided to honor it. Again I left the patterns up to anything but my own choice, this time using my "Bag of Tangles."  Students may recognize the bag as the ones you now receive your class materials in.  If you didn't know, you can use your micron pens to tangle the bag too!  It is a lot of fun to tangle on fabric.
My results on today's tile show a couple of moments of lost concentration.  Ten points to whoever can find those moments!
Happy Tangling!
