Back to the future.

Last Friday, a book I ordered recently arrived. It is the Zentangle Primer. Vol 1, by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas. This book represents the beginning instructions for the Zentangle method.

I have never taken a class from a CZT, (Certified Zentangle  Teacher,) so I was really looking forward to reading this book. I‘ve wanted it for some time, but the price is pretty steep. I have to say, so far, I am not disappointed. Even though it covers things that I already know, the book is still quite useful and informative.

The tile at the top of this post is from the first exercise in the book. I‘ve done this same tile before (with some variations) in the past, but this is my favorite version! So I have to say, the instructions were quite successful!
