Zentangles 101...

Last night I had the pleasure of attending a class at Scrapbook Cupboard in Bridgewater given by artist Toni Henneman, a certified zentangle trainer. Shown here are the three designs I created under her guidance and instruction (a bit primitive, but okay). I took this beginner class out of curiosity because I had heard so much about zentangles; I now look forward to an intermediate class.
A life-long doodler, I have learned how to create art instead of just doodles. As promised, the practice of creating a zentangle proved to be a focused, calming activity...I think could just get lost in the doing and forget everything that's happening around me! Such fun!
