Ready to tangle on something other than paper?

Yes!!  Well, I am sooooooooooo excited as I am planning to launch 2 new classes this spring!  So, if you've gone through my other classes, you will be eligible to take either one or both of these new classes.  

A sneak preview:


INTRODUCTION TO TANGLING ON FABRIC
Learn about tangling on fabric and complete a project … either a canvas tote bag, t-shirt, etc.


INTRODUCTION TO TANGLING ON RENAISSANCE (TAN)TILES:
Learn how to use Brown, Black, and White pens
and chalk on tan tiles (or tan paper) to create your own amazing "Renaissance" work of art! 

Both classes will give you the opportunity to expand your skills
and take your tangling to a whole new level!!! 

I've spent the past three months playing with the new Zentangle tan tiles.   I went nuts and fell in love with them … the look is incredible and the possibilities are endless.  Here's just a couple of samples:




In terms of fabric, I had way too much fun with a 50 cent t-shirt, a 75 cent canvas bag,  and a one dollar pair of sneakers that I got at a garage sale!



I put some black and white ribbon through the hood and attached some black beads.

A touch of red!

You did this Zentangle in the Advanced Class!   Remember?!?!

Notice I attached a couple of charms to the zippers.



If you think you might be interested in either one or both of these classes, please drop me an email and let me know.  audreys.attic@yahoo.com


And now for this month's new tangle …

VERDIGOGH 
by Maria Thomas

This is one of Maria's favorite tangles.  it was inspired by a pine branch.
Like so many tangles, it appears complicated when it's done, but as
we all now know, "anything is possible one stroke at a time!"

I love this tangle … it has an organic feel to it. You can see how I used it in my latest creation which I have just placed in the Artisan Store at the Brewery Art Center.  I got the amazing table at a garage sale, stripped off layers of old paint, sanded it, added the knobs, painted it, tangled the top, and covered it with glass.  The Verdigogh tangle is in the lower left hand corner of the table top.





Zentangle 101 Classes are beginning on Saturday February 1st and Wednesday February 5th.  The Saturday class is already filled, but there are still some openings in the Wednesday one!

Happy tangling!
