Daily Zen: 2018011601

The concept for this tile is from the Zentangle Project Pack 1 series. This time we’re drawing on an Apprentice tile. Since I don’t have any, I cut an appropriately sized tile from black paper.

In this video , Molly takes us through the steps of creating a large version of Crazy Huggins and then filling each element with another tangle. The fills alternate between Crazy ‘Nzeppel and Shattuck, depending on the direction of the Huggins element.

This is the first time I’ve drawn on the larger sized tile. I was a little worried that it would take longer or be more awkward, but it was fun! I’m feeling more comfortable with working on black. Enough so, that I am beginning to look forward to it for a change.
