"The Beginner's Guide to Zentangle is the easy way to learn step by step the relaxing, mesmerizing art of Zentangle-one day at a time.

 


Take your doodles to a whole new level with this fun and easy guide to learning the meditative art of Zentangle.
 
Adapted from the best-selling One Zentangle a Day, The Beginner's Guide to Zentangle shows aspiring Zentangle artists step by step how to create unique, mesmerizing designs. Featuring the incredibly beautiful and inspiring artwork of author Beckah Krahula, this easy-to-follow book is divided into six chapters, each with seven daily exercises.

The Zentangle method was created by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas as a way to practice focus and meditation through drawing by using repetitive lines, marks, circles, and shapes. Each mark is called a ""tangle,"" and you combine various tangles into patterns to create ""tiles,"" or small square drawings.

Each of the six chapters explores a different aspect of Zentangle:
 Basics and EnhancementsTangles and Value PatternsGeometric and Organic PatternsUnderstanding and Using ColorDefining and Using StyleCreating the Rest of Your Zentangle Journey
Each exercise includes new tangles to draw in sketchbooks or on Tiepolo (an Italian-made paper), teaches daily tile design, offers tips on related art principles, and contains an inspirational ""ZIA"" (Zentangle Inspired Art) project that incorporates patterns, art principals, and new techniques.
 
Drawing Zentangles is a relaxing and replenishing diversion that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and skill levels. In addition to its soothing benefits, a Zentangle practice can also help improve mental health. Step away from the daily hustle and untangle with a Zentangle."
