  1. Zentangle Designs The Art of Meditative Drawing

  2. Zentangle Designs • A Zentangle is an abstract, patterned drawing created according to the tenets of the Zentangle Method. • Using the standard format of a 3.5-inch square title, the artist creates a structured pattern according to his or her whim following a basic set of guidelines. • The tile should not have an "up" or a "down" - it is without orientation. • It should not be representative of any certain recognizable object; rather, it should be abstract. • The drawing should be completed in black ink on white paper. • A Zentangle is meant to be portable, so that it can be created at any time the mood strikes.

  3. How to make your own Zentangle • Using a pencil, draw a 3.5” Square on a white piece of paper • Outline the square with pen and then continue drawing a “tangle” inside the square. • A “tangle” is composed of simple shapes • Tangles can be a line, a dot, a circle, a squiggle, etc – or a combination of everything! • Don’t erase your mistakes • Remember that this should be fun and meditative!

  4. Zentangle Triptychs • A triptych is a three panel drawing • You will draw an animal in an environment with contour lines • You will fill in all of the spaces with different Zentangle Designs • Challenge yourself to alternate in between positive and negative spaces, or geometric and organic shapes!
