One of the CZT seminar ‘homework’ assignments was to deconstruct a pattern. We were asked to find a pattern in the hotel and break it down into the Zentangle elements of a dot, a line, a curved line, the letter S and/or an orb. I found a beautiful frame around a mirror and when I...
Balesleation – A Tangleation of Bales
I was playing with the tangle Bales and it turned out to be something I never saw before. This is an example of a tangleation. I started with Bales as the base and did my own version of what to put in the middle. I named this tangle Balesleation is a combination of Bales +...
Bud Runner
While playing in my Play Book** I created this tangle that reminded me of a plant so I originally called it, Fernz. Recently, a fellow CZT kindly informed me that the name Fernz was already taken so I changed the name to Bud Runner. After drawing the variation with an aura I decided that I...
Cluster
This tangle evolved from a single orb. I found that the bigger the orb, the easier it is to add the curved lines. I put the axes in before I add the curved lines so I am aware that they are going in different directions. Where the orbs come together you can fill them in...
Orb Pods – A New Tangle
Do you like to draw orbs? This tangle evolved from a love for drawing orbs and tangles with orbs, such as Tipple. I have a sketch book where I experiment and play. In the process of playing with orbs, I drew one Orb Pod and then wondered what it would look like with more pods...
Shattulation – A tangleation of the tangle Shattuck
Shattuck, a Zentangle®-original pattern, can be drawn with straight lines or curved line ( Step-outs for the curved version) To draw this tangleation, start where the pattern makes an inverted V and draw a slim triangle using one line of the original tangle as one side of the triangle....
Shiloh
This tangle developed as I was playing with what to put into a box. After completing the first pattern, I played with other ways to use the triangles. Tripoli is one of my favorite tangles, so I'm sure I will be playing with more variations as time goes on. Enjoy this tangle!
Xs and Orbs
This tangle, as the name indicates, uses orbs within an X. I am addicted to orbs and how to use them on a tile. I researched the name and did not find any tangles with this name. Please let me know if this name is already taken and by whom so I can aplogize and...
