Zentangle Flats

no expectations - just let your creativity flow...one stroke at a time.

Posted by Sallamari

I fell in love with Zentangle drawing.
no rules. no regulations.
only relaxation, meditation and lines.
line after line - one stroke at a time.

I had these white flats laying on my closet.
I wanted to try Zentangle drawing to another format than paper.

Im pretty happy with the result.

1 pair of canvas Flats (any color you like)
2 Marker Pen(s) permanent marker or fabric marker - whichever you have laying around

1

Pick up your flats and markers.
Place them on the table.

I recommend to use 2 different sizes of markers to create some depth to your creation. But if you only have one marker laying around, no worries that will do fine.
2

Start drawing your doodles.
Follow the stitch lines if you like - or create own lines. What ever feels right to you.

Just keep going. Nice and easy.

One stroke at a time.
3

Inspirations can be found easily online. Just type zentangle and search.
4

One side after the other.
That is how I made mine.
But there is no order or rules how to Zentangle. Pick any order you like.
5

Each side can be different. Or quite the same, if that is more your style.
6

I saved the best for last.
I did first the sides and then this front part.
7

Take your time and really enjoy this doodling process.
Zentangle method is an elegant metaphor for deliberate artistry in life.

One stroke at a time.

No hurry - just enjoy every stroke.

One point you realize that you are all done. And hungry to Zentangle more.

Happy strokes everyone!
