Day 5 takes me in a different direction. Margaret over at Enthusiastic Artist is an amazing Zentangle artist and is going to give away a dozen of her drawings in celebration of one year of blogging. In return she's asked people to send her traditional Zentangle tiles, so I complied. I drew a few, these three were the best though I only sent her a couple. A traditional tile is 3.5" square, is divided by a randomly drawn pencil "string" and then tangled within the string.
I find the creation of these very relaxing and rewarding - you still need to consider artistic principles like light/dark, contrast of shapes, shading, etc. but it's accomplished in a repetitive, relaxing mode. And I can do it anywhere - sitting in front of the TV, in a waiting room, on break at work.....
Check out all the MANY other creative endeavors on day 5 here at Art Every Day Month.
Terrie, love these, its great that you can do this anytime, any place and anywhere, I'm going to pay Margaret a visit, thanks for sharing. Have a blessed weekend. Amanda
