Description:

Another fun creative swap. For this swap we are going to share Zentangle artwork we create.

What is a Zentangle art peace? 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. Lots of different small shapes in 1 bit of art.

For anyone new to the term Zentangle see link video below. https://youtu.be/TyA87FeZCjU. https://images.app.goo.gl/g2mwhEyRkyf6PPfC6 https://images.app.goo.gl/jN4eUVyFEuyvoR897

Also if you Google Zentangle patterns there are loads of styles to inspire you. If you fancy a challenge try a animal that has Zentangle in shape. - again Google has may ideas if you have a look or see link above.

Artwork to be done on half sheet of card/paper - (senders choice if do bigger artwork)

This is a fun and calming swap so it newbie friendly, but new swappers must have a filled out profile if plan to join in.

Let's have some creative fun. Coloured or non coloured is senders choice.

The Zentangle site has all the official 'tangles' (patterns) and instructions on how to draw them:

What size is a half sheet in inches? Hugs from Alaska, Sherry

@AmookIslandCreations ... She's in the UK, so their standard size paper is A4.. which is close to our regular 8-1/2 by 11 sheet. Now, when she says 1/2 sheet, I get a bit confused. I'm going to "assume" she means hamburger fold and not hot dog fold. So... best guess would be 5-1/2 by 8-1/2?? Kind of large for a Zentangle tile.

Hi @PrairieKittin thanks for clear up size for me I just seen messages I been out the country and had little intrenet use as my mobile data I could not use for free where I was, yep I'm in the UK so sorry for confusion.

A peace of card or paper size to fit small standard envolope is fine( I get confused with over seas sizing of things to over here) . 8.5ins x 11ins or 8.3 ins x 11.7 if these measurements helps
