I'm so looking forward to a class/workshop being given towards the end of this month by a certified zentangle teacher. So far I've just been winging it looking at books and looking at examples on the web. I also look forward to learning about proper shading and eye movement within the tangles.
In the meantime, I'm just playing to see what I can do on my own :-)
While at the hospital Wednesday sitting with hubby, I tried the traditional method of frame/border and string. This is what I ended up with.
Now this morning I thought I would try working one without any confines of a string or border. I wanted to see how it might end up starting in the center and working out around the first pattern put down. As of right now, I think I prefer this over the border and string method but that might change once I take the class. I really don't know what I'm doing at this point but feel a sense of freedom with this method over the other.
Beautiful job, luv. So pleased at how these look.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure about Sunday the 26th...I have not heard back from the other two gals and unfortunately I did not get their phone numbers. The one gal that contacted me is not answering her email. I am going to try again this weekend.
Hope hubby is bouncing back well and will soon be ship shape.
I used to do some Zentangles: http://www.annieglacken.com/watercolor-doodling/
ReplyDeleteIt has been a while though. Both of your zentangles are really nice. My favorite is the organic shape you created with the second one. I hope your hubby is doing o.k.
Thank you Ginny!! Just let me know.......if not this month maybe you can try again. I hope so.
ReplyDeleteThank you Annie!! The more I play with these, the more I seem to take to the organic shapes over the traditional.
