Dots, lines, curves, circles – and suddenly a little masterpiece: a look back at the zentangle workshop, with a mini guide to try.
Note: this event has already taken place. Current events are in our event overview.
Zentangle is a method of free, meditative drawing. Pictures grow from repeated patterns built from dots, lines, curves and circles. No talent needed – just pen, paper and time.
Drawing brings a meditative flow: your mind calms and you feel more relaxed. Meditation works similarly: 7 techniques.
Mark four pencil dots on a small paper square.
Loosely connect the dots into a frame.
Draw a curvy line, the “string”, dividing the space.
Fill each section with a pattern of dots, lines or circles – in fineliner.
Gently shade with pencil – your little artwork is done.
There are no mistakes in zentangle – every line becomes part of the pattern.
