zentangle 2014
TRANSCRIPT
I. Overview and description:
If you like to draw patterns or doodle with pen and paper, you can learn to Zentangle. As the name implies, it's a Zen-like way of creating images through repetitive patterns and shapes.
Deliberate Mark: The Zentangle way, you draw each mark consciously and deliberately. We are always making "marks" (thoughts, words, deeds) in our life.
No Eraser
There is no eraser in life and there is no eraser in Zentangle. However, in Zentangle (and in life), you discover that even if you make what seems to be a mistake, you can then build on that event as a new pattern and go in unexpected and exciting new directions.
Element of Art: Line
Line variety is very important in this project.
Let’s watch some videos on techniques
