The Vigne tangle pattern appears to be inspired by the decorative folk art of tole painting. I can visualize each shape or line as a juicy brush stroke.
Chicago CZT® Sue Jacobs’ patterns often seem to come from decorative painting and indeed she writes Vigne was “inspired by a pattern I saw on a Russian tray but I’ve changed it up a little.”
Vigne is just a little more challenging to draw than it first appears, I found my vine wobbled all over the place at first. But a couple of practice goes, focusing on one deliberate stroke at a time, got me sorted. This is a lovely delicate pattern and I know you’ll find creative ways to weave it through your Zentangles and Zendalas.
Sue illustrates the steps for drawing her Vigne tangle here.

"Absolutely the best Zentangle Book yet! As an accomplished artist I used to think I did not need instruction on this art form. How wrong I was! My tangling improved by leaps and bounds after reading this book. If you think you have Zentangle down then you need this book more than ever!" ~ Kris H | |

Very pretty! I love it!
I am just starting to learn about Zentangle but have been “doodling” since I was in high school many years ago. I just wish I had more time. But I have bought a ton of books hoping to have lots of fun!
I love your tangles! They are so fluid, almost feminine.
