I recently published my first Zentangle video tutorial! I initially recorded this as an episode for my voice-guided zentangle class. But after editing it, I realized it was too complicated and clunky for voice-guided. So, I thought I would try it as a video.

Here's a floating or waving Mysealiam I did a while back using Procreate.

A drawing of a zentangle pattern called hearty wyfore. It resembles a line of stacked hearts with scrolls in the center. It is drawn with white gel pen on a black zentangle phi tile and has white chalk shade. It has a white border.

Also, I drew this from the bottom up, rather than from the top down, which gave me more narrow “hearts“.

I was going through a pile of tiles and found this one. I don’t know when I did it, but I love it! I think I was trying to practice shading with watercolor pencils.

Watching this month’s #Tanglelab come together was magnificent. Using Zentangle’s tangle of the year, huggins, to transform into wyfore in an unexpected way.

Oh and a little tucker happening there too.

Finally, after months, I got around to recording and publishing another podcast episode of my voice-guided, audio-only Zentangle class!

Give it a try and remember, no mistakes! You'll find it on all the podcast platforms!

I think even with a ballpoint pen, it looks amazing!

I followed Emiko Kaneko's (@emi.k.e) video featuring Waybop and Bales in stunning harmony. What an incredible design!

For some reason, drawing on a colored tile like this is so satisfying. This month's #tanglelab edition.

My #tanglelab contribution from last month from Zen Linea. I adore the wonky gems. #zentangle. And of course the design is simple and stunning.

Hello Bluesky! It's so daunting choosing what the first post should be. Instead of thinking too much, I just found a Zentangle drawing in the archives (2022). The green, summery color feels like what is needed on this gray January day!
