    Ceremonial
    Zentangle is an artistic meditation that supports relaxation, focus and inspiration and can be a wonderful daily ritual.
    Zentangle's philosophy, symbolism and metaphor is elegant and profound. There is much to discover about life and one's self through this
    simple act.
    Timeless
    Creating designs, manipulating symbols and putting pen to paper is part of our human heritage. In a time of keyboards,
    computer mice, and cell phones, Zentangle allows a return to a comfort and familiarity of timeless, basic creativity.
    Portable
    Zentangle provides an easy to learn method of relaxed focus which can be done almost anywhere, alone or in groups,
    without any special abilities or costly equipment.
    Quality
    Zentangle is elegantly designed, crafted and presented. If you are going to do something, then do it with the finest tools
    and materials available. We use the best paper and pens available to ensure your Zentangles will be a respected and treasured work of
    art. Unlike other methods of relaxation and focus, Zentangle yields a fruit which is beautiful and can be appreciated, collected, chronicled
    and reflected upon for years to come. Using fine materials is an act of respect for yourself and respect for your art.
    Non Technical
    Zentangle is not limited by technology. Your creativity is not directed by how someone else wrote a particular
    program, nor does it need batteries or electricity. Zentangle provides a counterbalance to our increasing use of computers, mice, screens
    and keyboards. It returns us to that fundamentally human behavior of manipulating symbols and putting marks on paper. Zentangle is not
    pre-programmed. Your creativity is your only limit and Zentangle has a way of increasing and inspiring expression of your personal
    creativity.
    Empowering
    To learn that you can deliberately relax and intentionally direct your attention while creating beautiful works of art is an
    empowering and uplifting experience.

    How to Draw a Zentangle:


    1. Draw a border outlining the shape of your zentangle. It is very common to use a square shape.
    The outline should be close to the edge of your sketchbook page. You can draw it on two pages if you
    want. Or do two separate ones on each page.
    2. Draw strings. Strings are lines that divide the shape into individual sections. Use a variety of lines
    to separate your sections.
    3. Fill one section with a repetitive pattern. Don't spend too much time planning the pattern, just
    draw. Use the patterns on the next page or the designs or stylization packets for inspiration.
    4. Repeat with each section. Change the pattern with each section. Fill each space.
    5. Add color and shading.

    ZenTangles
    What is a zentangle?
    In a word, a doodle. A structured, contained doodle. The term 'Zentangle' was coined by Rick Roberts
    and Maria Thomas. A zentangle is an abstract drawing created using repetitive patterns. It is usually
    structured within a certain shape. Drawing a zentangle is entertaining, relaxing, and a great way to
    express yourself creatively.

    Zentangle is an easy to learn method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns. It is a
    fascinating new art form that is fun and relaxing. It increases focus and creativity. Zentangle
    provides artistic satisfaction and an increased sense of personal well being. Zentangle is
    enjoyed by a wide range of skills and ages and is used in many fields of interest. We believe
    that life is an art form and that Zentangle is an elegant metaphor for deliberate artistry in life.

    Characteristics of Zentangle
    Intuitive Artform
    With Zentangle, anyone can create beautiful images from repetitive patterns. This method
    is easy to learn and easy to do. And even though it is a specified series of steps, it results
    in a creative expression that transcends its own rules.
    Fun and Relaxing
    Zentangle provides a fun and lighthearted way to relax and intentionally facilitate a shift in
    focus and perspective. Zentangle is unencumbered by dogma and cost which can weigh
    on other approaches. Nevertheless, Zentangle is sufficiently structured and organized so
    you can enjoy and benefit from an activity that otherwise might be considered whimsical.
    Abstract
    You cannot fail to create a Zentangle. That is because a Zentangle is meant to look like a
    Zentangle. It does not need to look like anything else and has no up or down.
    Unexpected Results
    Zentangle is an unusual approach to art because you have no idea what its result will be
    when you begin. Your creation is not restricted by your expectations.
