New Classes ... Inspiring Student Art!

Oh yes!!  Winter Zentangle  classes have started with all the zest and enthusiasm and fun they usually do!  Thanks to all of you!  The new classes, "Zen, Gems, and Tangles ... Oh Boy" has been so popular that I will need to add a couple more this spring!  And The "Grow Your Own Tangle Garden" has also filled up quickly and we will need to add another section as well.  I am so thrilled that you have enjoyed these new classes!!!  I am posting some pictures from the first Gem and Garden class:  the students outdid themselves and the results are spectacular!

Though the tangling is not yet finished, you can see the truly fabulous job that students did creating these gems once they learned the color pencil technique!  Exquisite!!!

And here is a look at the amazing and beautiful art created during the "Grow your Own Tangle Garden" class:


And last, but not least, is a photo of the awesome and inspiring art created by folks in the Advanced Zentangle class:




And now ...  for this month's tangle!  One of my new favorites:  ROCK 'N ROLL an original tangle created by the founder of Zentangle, Maria Thomas:

This tangle is part of a "trilogy" of tangles that Maria created entitled "Diva Dance."  There is a tangle called "Waltz" and one called Fox Trot."



Here are just a few different places where I've tangled "ROCK 'N ROLL"


On a cap

On a sneaker (Shading is on the inside perimeter of the tangle)

On a stone pendant (That's a crystal in the middle of the stone.)


This tangle is so much fun to do!  So play around with it and enjoy!!!

I will keep you posted of the dates that are added for extra "Gem" and "Garden" classes!

In the meantime, happy tangling!!!
