Back to Basics on the Beach

Another "Back to Basics” tile with a Z-string, Hollibaugh, Crescent Moon, Printemps and Bales. This one reminds me of a day I spent on the beach with a friend!

Back to Basics 2022 Recap

The first live session of the year: Art Clubbers had a special "back to basics”, using tangleations of what we learned in 2022 at Art Club. I'm always amazed at the things that can be done with the simple Z string and the four essential 101 tangles.

Zentangle Basics in Portuguese (again)

Last week I taught a Zentangle basic in Portuguese. Even though I have done the basic ZT class so many times, it never ceases to amaze me how each tile is so unique.

Bridge Transitions Class

Last Thursday Art Clubbers and I had the last phase of my Advanced Tangle Transitions class. Super fun strategy on how to work the boundaries of a string, using bridge and transitional elements.

Using Bridges in Zentangle 101

The last phase of my Advanced Tangle Transitions class with the Art Clubbers, and I find this stage a little tricky. To ease it off a little, I selected a Zentangle 101 tile, and that's probably what we'll do in class.

I think classic Zentangle is my favorite of all techniques. Black and white! Dewd, W2, Hibred, Ravel and Indy-rella.

Classic Zentangle with Brazilian friends

On Sunday I had a get together with a group of new tanglers, all Brazilian family and friends. Was such fun to do classic Zentangle using the Art Raffle app.
