How to draw BUBBLES

Zentangle pattern: Bubbles. Image © Linda Farmer and TanglePatterns.com. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. You may use this image for your personal non-commercial reference only. The unauthorized pinning, reproduction or distribution of this copyrighted work is illegal.Bubbles could be one of CZT® Suzanne McNeill’s favorite tangles because she includes it in three of her Zentangle® books: Zentangle 3, Zentangle: Fabric Arts, and Clay Classics Inspired by Zentangle. And with good reason — the simplest tangles are usually the best.

Bubbles uses one of the classic Zentangle® techniques of “drawing behind” to give depth and interest. This technique is something I still find a challenge and circles are not my forté either. I have a gimpy thumb that catches on its way around and I get lopsided results that I was not aiming for.

Suzanne illustrates the steps for drawing Bubbles here. UPDATE: Early in the Summer of 2014 Suzanne McNeill’s blog was removed and all the posts and images were lost. The site is being reconstructed as much as possible but the links will no longer be the same. Many of her patterns on TanglePatterns can quite easily be figured out. For those that might be a little more difficult, Suzanne has graciously given me permission to post her copyright-protected images on TanglePatterns for your convenience.
