Museum of Man goes Zentangle

San Diego Museum of Man 02.jpg
I taught my first Zentangle Method class 5/5/18 at the Museum of Man in San Diego California, in conjunction with PostSecrets exhibit by Frank Warren.  Frank began a decade ago handing out postcards to folks, asking them to design a postcard and write down their "secrets" and mail them to him.  We all have secrets.  Sometimes we never share them with anyone and they become heavy on our heart.  Letting go of "secrets"  helps us let go of the guilt, fear, regret of those secrets.  Frank received so many postcards, he created books to share with others.  The purpose of the books is to let folks know they are not alone with their secrets.

The Frank Warren PostSecrets exhibit is amazing and will be at the museum till 2020.  Schedule a day to view the exhibit and the museum's other exhibits. I will be teaching three more Zentangle classes at the museum:
   June 3rd  @ 11:00-12:00
   July 8th   @ 11:00-12:00
August 5th @ 11:-12:00

Twenty folks join me today to create a postcard (maybe a PostSecret) of their own.
Using the Zentangle Method we went thru the process of relaxing, focusing, and creating a tile with basic Zentangle patterns.  We had several ages with big smiles after they created their first Zentangle tile.
