Zentangle® – November 2020
/30 Days in November…such a challenge to pick just 30 from all the tiles I worked on in November! I am striving to do all the layers before I put the tile in the collection for the month….but have a pile of tiles I’ve made over the past few years that I took out from under the plastic tablecloth on the breakfast table when I put out the Christmas cards; I am still coloring and highlighting those old tiles….savoring them again.
There are 9 rectangular tiles (made from the separators in the cat food boxes). My favorite is the first one….reminiscent of fall bouquets.
I didn’t take enough materials to keep me busy during the NCIS commercials….and used the cardboard backing of a pad of paper for a Zentangle tile – an irregular size. It reminds me of coiled snakes – or maybe pangolins.
The time I spend making Zentangle tiles is enjoyable and rewarding. I am often pleasantly surprised by what I create by the time I finish. I never thought of myself as an artistic person, but maybe that was an assumption I made based on experiences in elementary school ‘art’ classes. Somehow the things we did in art class were not what I wanted to do!
