Ta da da- well ya have to start somewhere. This is one of the first Zentangle® tiles I completed. I was so proud. Since then, I have hundreds more. Tiles are 3 1/2" x 3 1/2", just the right size for someone stepping into this art method. Maybe, you remember in school when you had a large piece of paper in front of you and you were to write or draw---the size was so overwhelming, it made me just shut down.
The first tiles you do are small, with the use of a Micron 01 black pen, a pencil, and a blending stump. It's all about breaking the tangles down, which are called step outs. Small steps lead to grand achievements. The pencil and blending stump are used for the shading. Which in my opinion really makes the design stand out.
I promise, if you can write your name, you can tangle. Stay tuned for more tomorrow.
