Greetings from the "windy city" ...


... and I don't mean Chicago!

Hi Everyone

Hope you, and your property, survived the recent Carson City winds! Wow!

Just completed a round of Zentangle classes ... and there's a new one beginning this Saturday!  Can't tell you how much I LOVE teaching and sharing this magical and beautiful art form.  Take a look at a few of the cards from the last group of "graduates!" Beautiful!!!

Vicki Kunst
Carol Lamerdin
Barbara Andrade
And here are a few more photos from this last class!  The creativity that folks exhibit and the art that they make are really thrilling! 




Donna McLennan created this ZIA at home.  She used the wrapper from a Hershey's Kiss, burned it to create the color she wanted,  and then filled part of her string with it!  Donna definitely added some gorgeous texture to her ZIA by being so creative.


And, Darla Woodard blew us all away when she tangled the Parrot string handout she was given in class.  Awesome, Darla!!!

.  

So, once again ... KUDOS to all these wonderful women!

Many of you have written to me about my Zentangled tricycle ... thank you for the overwhelming  feedback!  I'm thrilled to say it did sell!  Right now I'm working on a table.  Will keep you posted and put pictures on my blog when it's completed.

Okay, now for a new tangle!

SINDU

I love this one ... it's stunning when it's done. 

Here 's a photo of a partially completed tile using the SINDU tangle. It's not shaded yet, and the tile will be part of a 9-tile ensemble I'm making ... but, I wanted you to see it next to other tangles.



Please, don't forget to send photos of anything you are doing that is Zentangle related!

And, let me know if I can be of ANY help with a tangle you forgot how to do.  Or, if you need any supplies.   Just email me or give me a call.  I will be working at The Artisan Store at the Brewery as follows:  Wednesday June 26th, Tuesday July 9th, Thursday July 25th, Thursday August 8th and Thursday August 20th.  Feel free to pop in any time between 10 and 3pm to say "hello!"

In the meantime, regards to all -- and happy tangling!
