How to draw JELLY LEGS

Zentangle pattern: Jelly Legs. 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.Jelly Legs is our very easy Monday tangle and it’s the first on TanglePatterns from California tangler Amber Davis.

Jelly Legs has a delicate appearance and owes its name to Amber’s children. “It reminded my 7 year old of kelp but that name was taken. It reminded my 9 year old of jellyfish legs hence the name.

I’m in Yorba Linda, California. I stumbled across Zentangle® while my 3 girls and I were shopping for craft supplies. I’ve always been crafty but never felt I had talent for drawing.

Zentangle came to me at a time when my health was not at its best and my stress was very high. I jumped in and it helped immediately to relieve tension and calm my mind and body. Although it seems drastic to say it was a life saver, it has truly impacted my life in so many positive ways.

I am thrilled to be registered for the CZT27 seminar and can’t wait to get more involved with the Zentangle community.”

While Jelly Legs is indeed easy to draw, bear in mind to make the crossing-over stroke of Step 2 “loopy” enough that you have enough space to add the solid shape in the following step. Pretty enough as is, there are also many ways you can embellish this tangle.

Amber illustrates the step-by-step instructions for drawing Jelly Legs below.
