Zentangle ®

Zentangle is a method of creating artwork by drawing structured


patterns, one line at a time. It brings out latent creativity, increases
focus, boosts self-esteem and provides an artistic outlet that is simple,
inexpensive and portable. Focusing on the task completely creates a
mindful relaxing awareness that allows creativity to pour through. The
art is a beautiful byproduct of complete mental immersion in the
process of Tangling.
The Zentangle ® method was created by Rick Roberts and Maria
Thomas

Please find a seat and settle in, taking a few deep


breaths and just find the space to relax.
Relax your body and think of what you are grateful for
today.
Try to remove yourself from work, cluttered mind and
anxiety and get into a space of peace and calm.
