Two MORE new Zentangle books

Recently I gave my Gentle Readers a heads up on two new Zentangle books that are being released this week. They are the long-awaited, much anticipated Yoga for Your Brain a Zentangle Workout by Sandy Bartholomew, and Suzanne McNeill’s Zentangle 4.

Well Suzanne’s publishing company, Design Originals, has obviously been very busy the last few months because there are two MORE new Zentangle books coming out this week. Four new books in one week. Wow!

And you still have time to order them as Valentine’s gifts, or just because.

Time To Tangle with Colors by CZT Marie Browning is the first of these two additional new books.

“Marie Browning pushes the envelope of Zentangle into the living dimension of color. Using easy to follow steps, Marie illustrates over 40 new tangles. More than simply coloring regions of a tangle design, this book offers lessons which enable even the novice artist to use a Tombow Dual Brush pen to color delightful Zentangle animals, plants and flowers.”

The second book is Clay Classics Inspired by Zentangle by Julie Eakes.

“Whether you are new to Zentangle or are new to polymer clay, this book will ignite your creativity. Have fun and relax with tangles interpreted into polymer clay. Julie illustrates several valuable techniques. She shows how to draw tangles on clay with a MICRON permanent ink pen, make black-white cane designs, silk screen tangle images, make transfers on clay, and incise lines into polymer clay. ”

6. "A Zentangle has no up or down and is not a picture of something, so you have no worries about whether you can draw a hand, or a duck. You always succeed in creating a Zentangle." Patterns that are drawings of a recognizable naturalistic or actual object, figure, or scene, are not tangles. A pattern is not always a tangle — here's what makes a tangle. TIP: tangles never start with pencil planning.
