The Zentangle Method is a simple yet fun and relaxing way to create beautiful images. You'll be drawing structured, repeated patterns that have been shown to increase focus and creativity. It also provides artistic satisfaction along with an increased sense of personal wellbeing.

Some benefits and uses include relaxation, simple and quick access to mindfulness. The Zentangle method has also been shown to help with insomnia, chronic pain, anxiety, self-esteem, panic attacks and improves fine motor skills, relieves stress, and is great for team building.

In this virtual experience, you will learn a brief history of this drawing technique, and then we will work through the eight steps of the Zentangle Method. You'll also learn the basic terminology and processes that are used in Zentangle, you will be introduced to several “tangles” (patterns) that you will use to create little pieces of art.

There are no mistakes in Zentangle, so you will hopefully also finish up feeling relaxed and refreshed!

I am a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT). I have been tangling for about 8 years and teaching for over 5 years. Zentangle is an easy-to-learn, fun and relaxing way to create beautiful images by drawing repeated structured patterns. No artistic ability is required. If you can hold a pen and write your name you are half way there. There are no mistakes in Zentangle, so you can’t get it wrong. Zentangle increases focus and creativity as well as providing simple and quick access to mindfulness. I love sharing my passion for Zentangle. I love both for the beauty of the artwork itself and the added benefits of relaxation, reducing anxiety, helping with insomnia, helping manage chronic pain, ...... the list goes on!
