It can be drawn in a circle or as a border. I like the aura-ed outer crescents. I imagine you can also add inner ones, as well as many other variations. For me, it is very alive and organic, perhaps a reference to the circle of life, the tree of life. It is also delicate and almost like lace. Enjoy!</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsBuGQrpeJz37OPfeuvMXpyEuYwOtcCKYbg1aUD_QyCWJglT9r4dnqA3h7ao_Wwx9DnM40LWbfGHgrwLTlh2DdLE3NLBNDpwvGCck0R99wcsb1zcDoypdeI1-X8z9UMCpzp1b5Np4ArY2N/s1023/117184948_2706090929718089_8556553459977141896_o.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1023" data-original-width="1016" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsBuGQrpeJz37OPfeuvMXpyEuYwOtcCKYbg1aUD_QyCWJglT9r4dnqA3h7ao_Wwx9DnM40LWbfGHgrwLTlh2DdLE3NLBNDpwvGCck0R99wcsb1zcDoypdeI1-X8z9UMCpzp1b5Np4ArY2N/w509-h512/117184948_2706090929718089_8556553459977141896_o.jpg" width="509" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7M8ppSQ1o9iG7jkJOs3cuMY4xZ1CkAb-dBr1IAYnkXc5gJTdQAgdClt37vaNtcO83TEVXGH6W6yzpyy3JYHlhzA1yjhlgEsTDSpfr0n5ClP00oX065E896ZPcoSSByTCPib8FsMjLG28i/s1440/117613733_2202032446610297_669949973964774063_o.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1440" height="307" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7M8ppSQ1o9iG7jkJOs3cuMY4xZ1CkAb-dBr1IAYnkXc5gJTdQAgdClt37vaNtcO83TEVXGH6W6yzpyy3JYHlhzA1yjhlgEsTDSpfr0n5ClP00oX065E896ZPcoSSByTCPib8FsMjLG28i/w410-h307/117613733_2202032446610297_669949973964774063_o.jpg" width="410" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4H4rqB_R5c8RUd4ZpQ8Fcr68J6gIxBzwYmOM782qIuM1ttk660GbVZLhtDpEv1CeeC09FJ39y-02EAH2kk1DbXTVTvNJxBA05tAEa3lgmR_5CDnoYS8mJe_VBx-vJ4R2CKKGpnl45-9il/s1019/110287871_2690417457952103_2558373549598359298_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1019" data-original-width="1019" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4H4rqB_R5c8RUd4ZpQ8Fcr68J6gIxBzwYmOM782qIuM1ttk660GbVZLhtDpEv1CeeC09FJ39y-02EAH2kk1DbXTVTvNJxBA05tAEa3lgmR_5CDnoYS8mJe_VBx-vJ4R2CKKGpnl45-9il/w512-h512/110287871_2690417457952103_2558373549598359298_o.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7M8ppSQ1o9iG7jkJOs3cuMY4xZ1CkAb-dBr1IAYnkXc5gJTdQAgdClt37vaNtcO83TEVXGH6W6yzpyy3JYHlhzA1yjhlgEsTDSpfr0n5ClP00oX065E896ZPcoSSByTCPib8FsMjLG28i/s1440/117613733_2202032446610297_669949973964774063_o.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><br /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNRrQE1NY1O-BxTfsQ-xGEdgYzp8cvhhyKlE27vs0ilajxQ-wRK1-L5IOY9k22HtH_n6NCln-xIkYfG5eMpQwICedfb-0gEoh6hjUqQlyJuol8gV-oZYL5BDF90Yd7VBe_52WWqZoddipC/s2048/JamieJohnsonCZT.Pokevine.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1347" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNRrQE1NY1O-BxTfsQ-xGEdgYzp8cvhhyKlE27vs0ilajxQ-wRK1-L5IOY9k22HtH_n6NCln-xIkYfG5eMpQwICedfb-0gEoh6hjUqQlyJuol8gV-oZYL5BDF90Yd7VBe_52WWqZoddipC/s640/JamieJohnsonCZT.Pokevine.jpg" /></a></div><p><br /></p>Jamiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05179258443574205738noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6437002909357346037.post-2807499419890657012020-06-28T11:54:00.000-04:002020-06-28T11:54:31.825-04:00Summer Tangles Challenge 2020It's that time again--our third annual Summer Tangles Challenge! <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This year, I think we need some solace so we're focusing on comfort tangles for challenging times. Simply take a look at the list, choose any tangles, create a tile with that tangle and others--and then share it at #summertangles2020. If you don't see one of your favorite tangles, do it instead. It's meant to be easy, enjoyable, and encouraging. I'll be posting my tiles on Instagram @yankeetangler as well as on FB: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/summertangleschallenge">https://www.facebook.com/summertangleschallenge</a></div>

Hope to see your tiles this summer!</div>

<b>Overview</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
Zentangle™is a fun and easy-to-use technique to create beautiful patterns with a focus on staying in the moment and mindfulness. In this particular lesson, you will quickly learn how to create an image using repetitive patterns around a word, phrase or symbol that is meaningful to you. While there are a plethora of fine art supplies available, I have suggested basic supplies to stress that you can practice this anywhere—all you need is pen and paper.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
In Zentangle™practice, we say there are “no mistakes.” This is not about creating a perfect product but about how you feel while you draw, which is why I emphasize that it is a “practice.” Adults often say they are not artists, but anyone can learn Zentangle™. The prescribed 8-step process is designed by Zentangle™ founders Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts to help overcome artistic self-doubt. We also say, “Anything is possible one step at a time.” Follow the steps below and you will have a valuable experience with a final product at the end.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
This particular lesson has been adapted from the original Zentangle™ method in order to accentuate the spiritual contemplation of the participant. In an unpublished research project, I found that 99% of survey respondents describe their Zentangle™ practice as improving their emotional well-being, while more than half specifically defined it as a spiritual practice.<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_ftnref1"></a><a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/blogger.g?blogID=6437002909357346037#_ftn1"><span style="color: blue;">[1]</span></a> As chaplains, spiritual caregivers, and mental health professionals understand, self-care is important in building resilience and coping with difficult events such as grief, loss, and trauma. Hopefully, this practice will become part of your spiritual self-care toolkit.<o:p></o:p></div>

<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Gratitude and appreciation</b>: Gather your supplies. Take a moment of stillness and quiet before beginning. Breathe in, breathe out. Say a prayer or give thanks before beginning.<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Corner dots</b>: With your pencil, on your piece of paper, put one dot in each corner to make a square large enough to write and draw in. This will be your practice space.<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Border</b>: With your pencil, connect those dots lightly. The line does not need to be straight. While we call this the border, you do not need to stay in the lines!<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>String</b>: Now with your pen, in the middle of your square, write a word (love, hope, joy, or even a short phrase or verse) or draw an image (heart, peace sign, star, cross, etc.), or combine the two. If you include words, you might want to outline the whole shape of the text. You can also subdivide the remaining space, with your pencil, to make smaller spaces to fill.<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Tangle</b>: Now add your patterns! A pattern (or tangle) is a series of repetitive steps drawn to create a beautiful design.<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Shade</b>: Add pencil shading to create patterns of light and dark. This does not need to create a sense of a single light source but is just another kind of pattern. Remember, you must leave some parts light to accentuate the dark shades.<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Initial and date</b>: You can even create a special symbol or signature for all of your drawings.<o:p></o:p></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><b>Appreciate</b>: Look at what you’ve created! Give thanks for this time of meditation and creativity.</li>

I am a Certified Zentangle™ Teacher (CZT) who practices and teaches in Connecticut under the name “Yankee Tangler.” I also hold a Ph.D. in art history and spent a decade creating and overseeing education programs in art museums. Now, as a student in the Masters of Divinity program at Hartford Seminary, I am journeying to become a hospice chaplain. As a Unitarian Universalist, I believe each person explores their own spiritual path of growth. Zentangle™ practice has been one of mine. <o:p></o:p></div>

Created by Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts, the Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™ </span><span style="background: white; color: #3c4043;">method</span><span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span>is a fun and easy-to-use technique to create beautiful patterns with a focus on staying in the moment and mindfulness.<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6437002909357346037&useLegacyBlogger=true#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" style="color: purple;" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference" style="vertical-align: super;"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference" style="vertical-align: super;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">[2]</span></span></span></a> Thousands of adults have been trained as Certified Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> Teachers (CZT), offering classes to students and practicing the art form all over the world. While Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> is promoted by companies selling supplies and workshops, including the official Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> headquarters, as meditative and stress-reducing, I set out to investigate how practitioners themselves view their Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> practice. My main research questions were “Do Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> practitioners view their experiences as spiritual?” and “How do online communities contribute to their Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> practice?” Utilizing an online questionnaire, I surveyed 82 “tanglers”—people who practice the Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> method—about their artistic practice, its personal meaning for them, their online habits, and their own spiritual or faith practices. Overall, my research project found that 99% of the respondents described Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> in terms of their emotional well-being. Words such as self-esteem, satisfaction, pride, relaxation, calm, and peace appear repeatedly. Many participants reported that they viewed Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> as a spiritual practice in which they engaged to maintain that sense of calm throughout their lives. Even more than that, some people indicated that their Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span> practices had wide-ranging, transformative effects on their lives, from living with physical pain to coping with the death of a loved one. As a transformative spiritual practice, Zentangle can best be understood using functional sociological frameworks. As sociologist Nancy Ammerman describes in her introduction to <i>Everyday Religion: Observing Modern Religious Lives, </i>“We do not assume that religion is always about ‘eternal truths’ that divide the saved and the damned. Nor do we follow rational choice theorists in positing that religion is always about ‘supernatural rewards’ . . . . religion is bigger than the theological ideas and religious institutions about which typical surveys have inquired.”<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6437002909357346037&useLegacyBlogger=true#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3" style="color: purple;" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference" style="vertical-align: super;"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference" style="vertical-align: super;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">[3]</span></span></span></a> There was, however, a distinct group of responders, about a quarter of participants overall, who rejected the spiritual notion of Zentangle<span style="background: white; color: #3c4043; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 10.5pt;">™</span>, seeing that idea in conflict with their own, more substantive, definitions of religion. This parallels the larger trends in American society, with religious manyness and secularization not only encouraging a wide variety and definition of spiritual activities but also creating discomfort for those with more traditional views of religion. <o:p></o:p></div>

I have a new tangle, a rather baroque, grid-like pattern that I'm calling <b>Tanson </b>(a combination of my last name and my wife's, as well as a reference to "tangle.") I think it has so many possibilities. Because of the way you create the tangle, there are two different kinds of shapes created--one is essentially rounded, the other "pointy." You can alter the connecting shapes from "rice" or ovals, fill the interior with various tangles, add more auras, etc.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While I've seen similar patterns in architecture, upholstery, woodwork, ironwork, and the like, the most direct inspiration was a piece of embroidery I saw online:</div>

I played around with it for awhile, first with differentiating the "m-shapes" top and bottom, and then keeping them the same through one whole iteration. It's hard to explain verbally.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">It's the second annual Summer Tangles Challenge!! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Like <a href="http://yankeetangler.blogspot.com/2018/06/summertangles2018.html">last year</a>, I've drawn the tangles from the current <a href="http://tanglepatterns.com/store/e-books">TanglePattern's 2019 Tangle Guide</a> so that everyone has access to the step outs; the list of tangle creators is included in this wonderful resource (I highly recommend supporting Linda Farmer's efforts by purchasing the guide.) Some are old, some new; some "official" from Zentangle HQ, most not. There are grids, organics, fillers, borders, and more. For the most part, I chose tangles that I have either rarely or never used so that I can add to my comfort repertoire. I've also chosen a few techniques, or trends, popular among CZTs (Certified Zentangle Teachers) and other tanglers, such as marginalia, inkless tangling, and Zentwining. I'll post my tiles here, on my FB page, and on Instagram ("yankeetangler"), and encourage others to post their own, using #summertangles2019. Below I include an explanation of some of the terms, with links and examples.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><br /><span style="background-color: #fefefe;"><span style="color: #333333;">The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns. It was originated by Maria and Rick Thomas. For more information or to find a Certified Zentangle Teacher near you, visit <a href="https://zentangle.com/" style="color: #888888; text-decoration-line: none;">Zentangle HQ</a>.</span></span></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="background-color: #fefefe; color: #333333;"><br /></span>Have fun experimenting and spread the word!</span></span><br />

I definitely enjoyed the month-long event, even if I knew most of the tangles already. It's nice to play and, having a prescribed tangle and a daily goal, kept me practicing.<br />

I did it <a href="https://yankeetangler.blogspot.com/2017/10/inktober-tangles-2017.html">last year</a>, too. This time around, I've been doing my "tiles" in my Tangle-A-Day calendar. It's a great place to keep everything together, but I have noticed that it doesn't take the ink the same way a Fabriano paper tile does and, in consequence, I find myself a bit sloppy; it's also hard for me to shade so I've been experimenting with shading with markers. I think the larger .08 microns work better than the .01s, creates a steadier line. In all, I imagine it's more me than the calendar. <br />
<br />
Less than a week of the challenge to go, and then it'll be time for all of the Thanksgiving-themed gratitude challenges!<br />

I spent a rainy, chilly day in the glorious mansion, Ochre Court, in Newport with Zentangle founders Maria and Rick Thomas and daughters Molly and Martha and about 40 of my fellow Zentanglers. We were there to learn about classifying and deconstructing various tangles--"Zentomology"--along with an exploration of the mansion looking at all the craftsmanship--and patterns--in wood, ironwork, gold, stone, plaster, cement, and paint. It was a wonderful afternoon with great people and inspirational practice.<br />

Because Zentangle HQ has asked us not to share certain details, I'll focus on the patterns I found. I believe they will be publishing aspects of Zentomology soon, as well as some of the patterns they deconstructed.<br />
<br />
Look at the inside--gorgeous materials, intricate patterns, huge space; it's the second-largest mansion in Newport, just behind the Breakers. It's now the administrative center of Salve Regina University, which has preserved it beautifully.<br />

And these are just some of the photos I snapped. Literally every surface was decorated, the exact opposite of our modern love of minimalism. And that doesn't even include all of the housewares and decorations long gone, much less the clothing! Quite the <i>horror vacui. </i> I can't imagine living in such luxury, much less this just being the beach house for summers; I wonder if the occupants, used to such extravagance, even noticed the details. As we wandered around--looking closely, even touching! so much better than your average docent tour--and I had a chance to sit by myself, I could take it all in.<br />
<br />
As much as I can admire the craftsmanship and luxury and be intrigued by the history, another part of me is fair disgusted by the excess and equality gap. (And politically and economically, I think we are returning to this time of robber barons and poverty.) But I put some of that aside in my study of the patterns, which I have been playing with. We'll see what it amounts to, besides lovely memories.<br />

I've been tangling a tile for every day between July 4th and Labor Day. It's been a glorious 60 days, which I'm finishing a bit early because of the chaos of the beginning of school. I've tried new tangles, learned more about social media posting, joined Instagram, met new people on various Zentangle forums, completed a presentation Opus tile of all the tangles (but not the techniques), and expanded my practice. It's been a wonderful experience.<br />
<br />
And I will do it again! Next year, I'll design the second-annual Summer Tangle Challenge. I've already started a list of tangles and techniques. I liked that it was not only patterns but trends in tangling. I'll be more careful creating the list, though; this time, I had some duplicates. I also realized I had more "ribbon" tangles than "fillers." I'll keep the FB page and Instagram going for the challenge and get the list out earlier so more people can participate. And I might do mine in a Tangle-A-Day (TAD) calendar, as so many do. <br />
<br />
It really was rewarding and inspiring to see people embrace the challenge and make it their own--so much creativity! Check out facebook.com/summertangleschallenge or search using the hashtag #summertangles2018 to see some of the amazing artwork.<br />

Thanks to Dessie Arnold for asking for clarification about some of the terms in the Summer Tangles Challenge. Here is my list of links and definitions, which is in no way complete.

<b>Dingbatz*</b>--Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, founders of Zentangle, introduced the idea of dingbatz about a year ago in a Kitchen Table Tangle video (most KTT videos are available to Zentangle Mosaic subscribers only), inspired by the calligraphic designs used by publishers to separate sections. There are a variety of examples on Pinterest and a video by Eni Oken.</div>

At a friend's lake house for a summer party, I spotted this pattern draped across a chair.<br />

This is an organic tangle that can also be adapted for a grid or even border. I leave the inside of the tangle empty in the step-out so that you can add your own patterns to the middle; I've tried orbs, petals, lines, and auras. I hope people will find many possibilities in this tangle.<br />

<br />
Okay, I'm a bit early, but I'm excited. I've been getting loads of CZT support and am looking forward to seeing everyone's tangles. I hope you'll join me, in whatever capacity inspires you. I'll be posting here, on FB, and on Instagram under Yankee Tangler and #summertangles2018.<br />
<br />
I have noticed (or, more specifically, been alerted to) a few mistakes on my original announcement: I used the tangles Pach and Z-trik twice and I skipped July 31. So, those days are choose-your-own-tangle days. I'll be doing my fellow CT CZT Laura Anthony Marks's new Ringz on July 31. <br />
<br />
Happy tangling!<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love a good tangle challenge--often a list of tangles to try each day--and have participated in #Valentangles, #Gratitangles, #Giveatangle, and #Inktober. Challenges let me explore new pattern, get inspiration from others working on the same thing, and encourage me to tangle each day for a set period of time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Seeing a dearth of tangle challenges in the summer months, I made one. I've drawn the tangles from <a href="http://tanglepatterns.com/">TanglePattern's 2018 Tangle Guide</a> so that everyone has access to the step outs; the list of tangle creators is included in this wonderful resource (I highly recommend supporting Linda Farmer's efforts by purchasing the guide.) Some are old, some new; some "official" from Zentangle HQ, most not. There are grids, organics, fillers, borders, and more. For the most part, I chose tangles that I have either rarely or never used so that I can add to my comfort repertoire. I've also chosen a few techniques, or trends, popular among CZTs (Certified Zentangle Teachers) and other tanglers, such as the enhancer "dewdrop," Zen Gems, and embedded letters. I'll post my tiles here, on my FB page, and on Instagram ("yankeetangler"), and encourages others to post their own, using #summertangles2018. UPDATE: See <a href="http://yankeetangler.blogspot.com/2018/07/some-clarification.html">"Some Clarification"</a> for an explanation of some of the terms, with links and examples.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">OOOPs, I realized that I repeated two tangles. Well, embracing the "no mistakes" mentality of the Zentangle Method, I'm leaving them right where they are. I'll just do them twice!

And, oh, the tangling! This is the third Zentangle retreat I've attended at Copper Beech (plus a one-day workshop) and it was my favorite so far. Taught by Certified Zentangle Teachers (CZTs) Beth Malley and Janet Valencis, the class was well-paced and informative with lots of different projects, new tangles, goodie supply bags, and fun raffles (I won a small photo cube that will hold small Bijou tiles.) So many great projects, including our double-heart-string puzzle, a piece of which was given to someone else to tangle and returned to us at the end of the weekend.</div>

And the gorgeous bleeding tissue paper that colored our Opus-sized tile for our tangled heart. I experimented with lots of "frills" or "doodads" outside the heart, also with random white dots to highlight the patterns. And of course, I don't usually work in color. This was a great way to use color without worrying about coloring or painting in the tangles. </div>

We also made gratitude bouquets (the vase is made from acrylic paint applied onto paper with baby wipes!), a little book (acrylic paint scraped on paper with a gift card or hotel key card), and a little Bijou tile book which will contain 26 tangles A to Z. I made the book but will add the Bijous later. I was mostly focused on the bigger, higher concentration projects like the heart and the puzzle. At the end, instead of a class mosaic, we did a mini-exhibition with all of our projects displayed. </div>

I really liked the group of women (and one man), both CZTs and newbies, who attended, several of whom I'm now in touch with online. And I'm already saving the date for next year's retreat. Until then, I'll be playing with doodads and tissue paper.</div>

Some I like, others not as much. Even though I practice Zentangle most days, I am more or less mindful and meditative depending on the day. Today, in combining 15 tangles (and forgetting one) in one tile, I lost concentration, made a mistake in setting down the basis of beeline, and was then frustrated. I rushed the rest of the tangles and shading, giving up on the idea of a "perfect" tile. Ah, <i>perfect</i> is the enemy of good. I forget the "no mistakes" mantra of the Zentangle community. It's a practice. One I definitely need.<br />

Both similar and widely divergent at the same time, the class tiles together demonstrate the breadth of creativity--and give me some great ideas!<br />
<br />
So this morning, with sun beaming in the windows on this otherwise cold day, I made a few of my own personal mosaics, from the tiles I keep in a box. They aren't really in any order, though I can see similarities in groups I must have put in the box at the same time--comfort tangles, new techniques, similar strings.<br />
<br />
And Eris helped . . . .<br />

I joined <a href="https://enioken.com/">Eni Oken's Art Club</a> and have been working my way through several of her classes. I really liked the classes on tangling letters and words, which can be combined with the shading little details information. I can't wait to see how these new techniques affect my practice. If you are looking for an easy and relatively affordable way to expand your Zentangle practice, especially if there isn't a CZT nearby, I highly recommend her videos and ebooks.<br />
<br />
Here are some pages from my sketchbook as I worked through the lessons.<br />

Here are the rest of the tiles for #Inktober2017, a challenge to complete a tile with a tangle a day. I really enjoyed the challenge and am starting a new one, actually two, for November! It's a great way to learn new tangles and to eliminate decisions about which tangles to use. <br />
