About Zentangle®
What is Zentangle?
Zentangle is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns. Zentangle is a journey of self-discovery with a focus on the process of drawing.
Art form
The Zentangle method provides a structured path for creating art from patterns by breaking them down into elemental strokes. It requires no recognized artistic ability.
A life skill
Like breathing deeply or spending time meditating, the intentional practice of Zentangle has had profound effects on my life and the lives of others. Read more about the studies that have been done.
A perspective
The many parallels between everyday life and Zentangle can come alive with practice. We begin to see that as in Zentangle, life does not have an eraser. We make adjustments as we go along.
A tool
I always carry a little Zentangle kit with me. I tangle when I’m waiting at the doctor’s office or if I need 5 minutes to refocus and calm myself.
My Story
How I discovered Zentangle
I was introduced to Zentangle in 2010, and became certified to teach in 2014–that’s when I became a CZT, a Certified Zentangle Teacher. I became a Zentangle teacher so I could share the benefits of a practice of mindfulness blended with creative expression.
I studied with the founders of Zentangle in June 2014 so that I could bring the Zentangle method directly from them to you.
I have found calm, clarity, and the satisfaction of creating beautiful images through this meditative art form. I’m honored to be able to share it with others!
Practice with me
I have taught large groups, small groups, on Zoom, in person, and one-on-one.
If you’re interested in hiring me to teach you or your group the art of Zentangle, contact me.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
