Time to Tangle with Colors - Marie Browning
Zentangle calms the mind. It helps reduce stress and improves focus. This relaxing process turns simple patterns into artistic design.
Permanent Pen
My favorite is a permanent Sakura® Pigma™ Micron 01 black pigment ink pen.
Pencil
A soft pencil for drawing the strings and for shading.
Paper Tiles
Zentangle’s method uses 3¹/2 x 3¹/2
die-cut squares of museum grade Italian printmaking paper, called ‘tiles’.
Steps for Zentangle
1. Make Corner Dots
Using a pencil, make a dot in each corner of a tile. Connect the dots to form a border. This line can be
wavy or straight. You don’t need a ruler.
2. Draw a String
The line can curve, wiggle, zig or zag into any shape you want – try circles, triangles, and other simple shapes.
Make some areas large and others small.
Do not erase. The original pencil lines are part of the design.
