Learn the Art of Zentangle
in 30 minutes a day!
Learn Zentangle art through my online video tutorials, a meditative and therapeutic experience. Start by setting a comfortable, calming atmosphere with music and a candle. Begin by drawing four dots on a tile's corners, connect them with loose lines, and create a unique inner frame called a 'string.' Then, dive into learning various Zentangle patterns to fill these sections and create beautiful art. This course is designed for beginners and kids, offering an engaging way to develop motor skills and creativity. For adults, it brings relaxation and a sense of accomplishment. You can even make your Zentangle patterns printable and use them as coloring pages. With practice, you can invent your own tangles, making this art form a deeply personal and expressive journey.
