Suzanne McNeill’s Design Originals has added another new booklet in her Zentangle series – Zentangle 7 – Inspiring Circles, Zendalas & Shapes was released in November 2012.
20 pages (including covers). List: $8.99.
Here’s what the publisher has to say: “Bring your Zentangles full circle with 40 new tangle patterns and ideas for making beautiful Zendalas. Talented Certified Zentangle Teachers share their tips and designs for using watercolors and circular stencils, making mini Zendalas on metal rim tags, creating a Zendala spinner, or using the pre-strung tiles. Following the step-by-step instructions, you’ll find the process of Zentangle to be simple and truely (sic) relaxing.”
“A Zendala is a form of mandala that is drawn using tangles to fill each section of a circle,” writes Suzanne. Zentangle 7 will help you “create beautiful Zendalas and fascinating circular designs with this step-by-step guidebook.”
In addition to Suzanne’s tips and art, several CZTs whose names you’ll recognize are also featured in the book with their Zendala-related art and techniques: Margaret Bremner, Sue Jacobs, Julie Evans, Sandy Steen Bartholmew, Angie Vangalis, Sandhya Manne, and Erin Koetz Olson. These CZTs all “generously share their secrets for creating basic circle designs, and how to add color, resist, layers, and more.” You also get the bonus of several dozen more of Suzanne’s patterns to try, which the CZTs were asked to incorporate into their art for Zentangle 7.
For those of you interested in expanding your creativity into the realm of Zendalas, Zentangle 7 has a whole range of ideas you might like to try. And for $8.99, it won’t break your bank to explore them.
