November Kensington Library Zentangle Zendala

,  I know most people don't excited about rain but WHOLY COW - IT'S RAINING IN SAN DIEGO.  Honestly, we only get about 1/2 inch a year if that...  The weather is saying we could get seven days of rain (hopefully light).  Our ground has no drainage and can't handle a deluge of water. 

Eight brave-dedicated tanglers dragged themselves out in the rain today and joined at me at Kensington Library in San Diego, for a fall Kandy Korn ZendalaThree of the participants, a husband and wife duo and an enthusiastic wide eye student were introduced to their first enounter with The Zentangle Method.   So fun to see the "ah ha" moments folks go "wow, this is amazing, when is the next class?".

I pre-brushed the circular watercolor paper with three fall colors and drew a pre-string Zendala circle to leave some time for folks to use color pencils in class after tangling.  

Coloring the final piece takes so much time, so many folks decided to take home and finish the coloring.  Didn't they all come out great.....................  I love the different "linked" chain tangle aound the outside.










Thanks to all who weather the rainy day.

Rancho Santa Fe Library Zentangle Pumpkin Fun

 This morning in beautiful Rancho Sante Fe in southern California, twenty ready for fall weather join me to create adorable Zentangle pumpkins called a ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art). 


Thanks to the Guild of Rancho Sante Fe Library in hosting and inviting me to share the Zentangle Method and supplying all the pumpkins from Michaels.  Without them there would be no classes.








This creative girl choose to write a message on her pumpkin."Happy Halloween  have a spook-tacular time! 


This young boy had the best time and all his free style tangles.  Love his enthusiasm.











This five year old did a fantastic job and he was cute as a button

Some of my pumpkins:  some have been dripped with Alchol Ink then tangled.












This pumpkin I'm giving to my grandson, Bryce's kindergarten teacher for Happy Autumn

Kensngton Library Zentangle Puppy with Flower Class

 Aloha, eight of my friends joined me in creating a ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art).  That means, an art piece using the tangles from the Zentangle Art Method.  At this quaint little library in Kensington, SD, CA, we enjoyed two hours creating this adorable little puppy holding a flower.
