Sharing the Zentangle® Art Method in La Jolla & San Diego
“Close your eyes” and draw your string … this is the Diva’s Challenge to us this week. So, I drew my four dots, made my border and then shut my eyes. The results …
Today I taught my first Zentangle Class. It was SO MUCH FUN! Twelve people signed up at Paper Tales in the Pt. Loma area of San Diego. It was a great mix of ladies, even a mom and her young daughter. We finished our two… Continue Reading “Zentangle Basics Class … Paper Tales”
Such a coincidence that this week’s Diva Challenge is “Leaves”. If you read my last post from just yesterday, you’ll see that our “San Diego/Temecula Sunday Zentangle Club” met at my house. I had prepared watercolored tiles with a leaf outline for each of us… Continue Reading “Challenge #186 … Leaves”
Today seven of us met for our monthly “Sunday Zentangle Club”. My aunt, Elaine, joined us as she’s visiting me from Trail, B.C. Canada. This was her second Zentangle experience and she did very well (second row on the right)! Also joining the group this… Continue Reading “Sunday Zentangle Club …. Autumn”
This week’s Diva Challenge was to use Molly Hollibaugh’s new pattern “ING”. This pattern was introduced at CZT Training #14 (which I attended!). When I was done, I looked at this and thought …. “ING Bird”! View the other entries at the Diva’s website.

Loma area, on Sunday, September 28th from 12:30 – 2:30pm. Check my “Zentangle Classes” for more… Continue Reading “Upcoming Class … Zentangle Basics”

I created a string consisting of four stripes and then filled in each one with Jetties, Hollibaugh, Tipple and Zander. I do like how the four patterns work together.… Continue Reading “Challenge #182 … “Stripes””
This week’s Diva Challenge is made for me. We are challenged to use “water” in any way we like. I chose a sea life ZIA with my tile “brushed” with Derwent “water” colors. I was disappointed with myself last week as I didn’t finish the… Continue Reading “Challenge #181 …. “Water” …”
Zentangle introduced their new “mascot” in June …. a little snail named “Bijou”. Like Bijou, drawing patterns is very slow and deliberate, all the while enjoying the process and getting lost in your own thoughts. (At least that’s my interpretation!) Because of the small… Continue Reading “Weekly Challenge #179 … Bijou”
Before I get into my submission for this week’s Diva Challenge, I just want to say how much I love Zentangle and the new path it is taking me. I’ve met some wonderful people who share in this passion, as well as new internet “connections” to… Continue Reading “Challenge #178 … Duotangle by the Letter”
