Sometimes, I want to tangle with only “official” tangle patterns. It was almost midnight. I had been asleep for a couple of hours, but then I woke up and realized I wasn‘t going to go back to sleep any time soon. So I got up and went in the studio to draw for a while. I used my handy, dandy list of official tangles and a random number generator to pick all of the patterns to fill my tile.

Happy Halloween, everyone! This is one of my favorite holidays. Everyone dresses up and has lots of fun. Kids get to dress up as their heroes and adults get to bring out their inner kid to play. I had a dream last week of a picture with a variety of “little monsters” in it. So I decided to try and recreate a bit of the dream to share with you!

Welcome to the new website for Tandika.com! You‘ll notice several things that are the same, and a few that are different. I am still creating Zentangles on a regular basis. You will be seeing them, but not necessarily on the exact day they are created. On Thursdays, you will see an older tile, billed as a throwback. I‘ve been tangling for 6 years now, and it‘s interesting to see what has changed, and what remains the same.
