So I did another and filled in lots of space. Then I kept looking at this thinking it didin't look quite right and went back to the web site that Teri told us about and read up a little on them.
I realized that they didn't go edge to edge on their paper. It was more of a free hand drawing.
Although they suggest that you use black ink and fine papers I have used what I have on hand. My sketchbook was here just waiting for some attention and since I like color I have done a few small ones with my colored Sharpies. The one below sort of looks like Broom Hilda came out of her dress as she flew by.
I also reverted back to the full square with the blue. I don't know why that happened.
All I know is that once I started I had a difficult time stopping. It may not be the true zentangle but it is something I enjoyed doing...obviously.
I just wish I had some different colors of markers to use. I also was reminded that I am not a perfectionist which I think would help if you were a true zentanglist. Is that a word or a being?

Best part? There are no rules. Just whatever makes you happy.
Welcome to the world of zentanglers!

Lisa!!!!! How cool! I can see you need that HUGE pack of all different colored Sharpies! LOL!
I like the way you just experimented with all the shapes and feels...I need to try that!

Hmm, perhaps this lady could learn after all. How very interesting and thanks for including the link. You've done so well!
PS, I have never been too good at the visual arts but I might try this.
