This April, I’m participating in the April A to Z Blogging Challenge with a creative twist -learning and sharing Zentangle patterns! Each day, I’ll explore a new pattern, uncovering its beauty and include it in my zentangle inspired artwork. At the end of the challenge, I hope to have a completed artwork with all the patterns I learned in this challenge. Join me on this artistic journey as I embrace mindfulness, creativity, and the joy of tangling!
Zentangle designs often involve basic geometric shapes like circles, squares, or triangles. By combining these shapes in different ways, you can create complex, flowing patterns that look intricate.
Day 5 of challenge – E for Essence
Today I am learning to draw Essence. A beautiful pattern that flows smoothly and can be experimented with to create delicate floral patterns. You can read more about the tangle pattern here – Essence. It features curved lines that intertwine with spirals and gentle swirls. It creates an elegant, organic design, evoking a sense of movement and fluidity, often used to add depth and texture to Zentangle artwork.
The Zentangle Inspired Artwork or ZIA is coming along nicely. I hope I have enough space to include all the tangle patterns till Z.
