Classic tile

Sometimes I really want to enjoy the comfort of making a classic tile. Just drawing because I feel like it, without thinking about anything else. It is nice not to worry about composition, style or whatever I think about when I'm drawing. It brings me back to the essential idea of zentangle.

It is great to have learned something so easy as zentangle. It comes in so many different ways, styles and choices. There is always something to choose, depending on how I feel.

This time I felt like wanting to draw, whatever...

And so I practiced shadowing some official patterns, which I choose at random.

I enjoyed the process and I'am even pleased with this result. I think that this is exactly what the founders of zentangle had in mind.

Patterns used for this tile:

Hollibaugh, pea-nuckle, meer, cubine and nipa

Narwal carnival

Narwal is a pattern I really adore. It is elegant, flowy and easy to draw. If you practice the steps a few times, than you'll never forget.

Here, Narwal is having a great party with Squid and Flux.

I like drawing on colored  paper. This tile is cut out if brown cardboard. I think it works very well with the brown, the black and the white inks.

Tangles used: squid, narwal and flux

I ❤️ it!

On this tile I spread a lot of hearts.

It expresses my love for life and my love for Zentangle.

Tangles used:

Heartstrings

Floating tanglepatterns

I started this tile by drawing the two angelfish in the middle. I combined them with some other patterns and before I knew it, I made an aquarium.

One of my favorite patterns is dragonair.  I decided to use it as a half-border.
