Zentangle Lessons

betinaj 6 Comments

I’ve been busy since Christmas creating some ideas for the January Art Journaling Group.  I had previously asked the group if they would like to learn some zentangle or a new painting technique.  Most responded with a big vote for zentangle.  I thought I needed to brush up on some zentangle so have been trying to sketch something every day.  These are a few of what I’ve created thus far.  Not sure yet what I will be teaching for the upcoming art journaling class but I’m going to be ready!!

I’ve started a summer challenge.  50 pages in my art journal over the summer!  I’ve challenged other artists to join me on my Facebook page and thus far I have two other artists sharing their art journal pages.  It’s a great way to create and experiment with some new art techniques.  Thus far I have created eight pages.  A great start to my summer challenge.  Hope your summer is beginning to give you joy, fun and many new adventures!

My first three pages!!

All Dressed for Baking!

I’ve created a ton of fun little sketches for the holidays.  This time of the year is full of so many fun events.  Recently, I participated in my very first cookie exchange.  I absolutely loved it and we are planning next years event already!  This sketch is from my art journal, influenced by the sharing of goodies and the flare we have for dressing up during the holidays.  Baking is fun and why not dress it up a bit while we are doing it!!

Wishing all of you the best this special time of the year!
