Erin asked us this week for our template to think about how thankful we are for zentangle and it's founders. I sort of stumbled onto zentangle messing around on the internet one evening. I decided to look up some books on Amazon. Did a lot more research on the internet and here I am. I love the confidence it has given me - in my art, certainly, but just as much in other areas of my life. And confidence is one thing I struggle with daily. I love the friends I have made through this awesome art. I feel as though I am truly a part of an artistic community and that thrills my soul to pieces. I have always been told by people I am an artist, but never really felt it. Now I can seriously say I am an artist and mean it.
I decided to take the letters of the word zentangle to find tangles to use on the template. I have a HUGE green binder with tangles I have found through various resources. I used some official tangles of Rick and Maria, some come from my Suzanne McNeill books, and others from a few of the many wonderful artists I have "met" on the internet. I used - Zedbra, Eyeballs, Nzeppel, Tipple, Amaze, Ninepatch, Golven, Laced, Esses.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope you have a wonderful week filled with smiles!
