ZENTANGLE MOSAIC APP

By Linda Farmer, CZT

This page is for your information only, I DO NOT receive compensation from Zentangle for this “promotion” or any subscriptions that result.

The Zentangle Mosaic app is available in the Apple Store for Apple devices, and on Google Play for Android devices.

While the app is free to sign up, the free version has limited viewing capabilities.

By subscribing to the paid version ($24.99 annually) subscribers to the Zentangle Mosaic have access to the following functionality:

  • Ability to upload tiles and create mosaics
  • Appreciate other users and tiles
  • Comment on tiles and mosaics
  • Access to “Tangles, Tips and Techniques,” “Kitchen Table Tangles,” and “Tangle Step Outs”
  • View tiles at high resolution

To see all the publicly available (ie. you don’t need the app) Kitchen Table Tangles videos, visit the ZENTANGLES > KTT VIDEOS page on the top menu bar of the site.

“Become part of the world’s largest Zentangle Mosaic!

Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, the founders of the Zentangle® Method, created this app so you can log and organize your Zentangle creations and then share them with our nurturing and inspiring community of Zentangle enthusiasts across this planet.“

For more details about the Mosaic app, visit this page on zentangle.com.

If you are new to the Zentangle Method I highly recommend learning a few of the published Zentangle classics first.
  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." Thus 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.
