ZENTANGLES.... 1. clay (wrangler) 2. nanners 3. GeorgiaMa'am 4. GEMME!!! 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. I'm super duper excited about this project. I have new juicy Microns and I ordered something new to try if it comes in time. If you have a couple hours, you can bang them out, CCB. I'd love to see what your artistic brain comes up with! |

I’m such a doofus. I’m going to blame the time change for my non functioning brain this morning. I had all the vision boards packaged up and ready to go, all in a bag to carry into the post office...and I drove to work which means paying for parking in downtown Minneapolis so I could hit the post office on my lunch break. Perfect, right?
Not so much when you forget the darn bag and realize it halfway to work with no time to go back to get it. Arghhh! Sorry, they’ll now be in mail BEFORE work tomorrow morning. |
So let me make sure I have this right. It's ok to have something realistic in your zentangle and then build the zentangle around that? I haz as an idea....

3. TOTALLY OPTIONAL!!! You have choice to incorporate an animal OR a sun OR a whatever you wish into the piece. ...so I think you're okay. |
Thanks, you two. I thought I'd be ok but just wanted to make sure I was interpreting correctly. I'm really liking my idea so I'm glad that this is the case!!!
|
CCB, Georgia Ma'am, & Gemme...you are all correct!
I want the zentangle design to be the primary design, but you may incorporate another design into it....:). I am excited to see what you all do & your interpretation of the project, and I will love all of them........:) |
Let's talk about paper
I'm having trouble identifying the best paper for zentagles. I ordered some Strathmore 400 series paper with a fine finish zentangle tiles, but they are thin, like heavy paper, and have a rougher surface than I would like. I have a few of the official Zentangle tiles, but they have a rougher surface. Has anyone tried doing Zentangle or work with micron pens on vellum? I found some 24# and some 67# vellum that I can cut into twinchies. Also, I can't find any twinchie tiles, of any kind, on Amazon. It seems like the last time I did twinchies, I ordered them from Amazon. I just can't identify the right search terms.
Can anyone help with suggestions, web sites, search terms? |
I think that would be super fun, Georgia! I don't see why vellum would present an issue for you. It may be a little slick, but I think it could work. You could also specifically look for hot pressed paper as it naturally has less tooth to it.

The vision boards are all in the mail. You’ll get them either on Thursday or Friday. Zentangle time and Goooooo!! :happyjump:
|
I am usuing Bristol paper for mine but it only comes in ATC size, not twinchie. It would kind of be a waste of paper cutting it down but it's SUPER smooth. I did my first zentangle last night with a black Sakura gel pen and the combination worked beautifully.
ETA: I think vellum with a micron would work out well. |

I think the vellum will work for your project tiles. I ordered 75 zentangle tiles that are $5.39 and are the Bristol tiles. I like them thus far. I have all my ideas , just waiting for markers to arrive...:)..then zentangle here I come..:) |
I may or may not have gotten a delivery today.
:blink: |

It's less than $5 for 20 sheets. I also found it on Blick for about half that. Maybe this could work too? |
