Another year of Zentangle fun at SGSCC…

Thanks everyone for coming along this year. Zentangle really does bring together a lovely group of people. (This photo was taken in week 2 – sorry to those people who were away or had to leave early and missed out on the photo)

Hope you all enjoy the holiday season and New Year celebrations and I’m looking forward to next year!

Updated Class Schedule

We’ve just finished the 6 week Beyond the Basics class at St George & Sutherland Community College. Zentangle really does attract lovely groups of like-minded people (I know I keep saying it – but it’s true!). We went out for lunch after the last class which topped off the 6 weeks!

What’s next? I’ve just updated the Workshops page with the latest Class Schedule so have a look at what’s available for the rest of the year and January 2020. Labyrinths, 3Z Stars & Klimt inspired tiles to name a few.

I will be sending out an email by Monday 23/9/19 so if you don’t receive one and would like to, then please contact me on the Contact/Bookings page

Zendala Class

There were a lot of laughs, fun and friendships made this week at both the Zendala Classes. We didn’t quite finish the all tiles but you could post them here in the comments when they are finished, if you want. The tiles look amazing and each have their own individual style. I love them all!

The little succulent plant photo was taken on Saturday morning just outside my studio before the class started. When you look closely you can see some beautiful little dewdrops on the leaves. And the leaves are the perfect shape to add to mandalas. Nature is so perfect.

Zentangle Class – this Thursday 2nd May

There are spots available for the advanced class this Thursday. We’re going to explore a special string which will create a ‘circle in a Square’. I hope it will be a spring board to inspire you to take your creativity further.

Looking forward to seeing those who are booked in. If you’d like to join us or find out more information then contact me on the ‘bookings’ page of Artoftangling.com.

Zentangle Class – Borders

The first class for the year will be on “Borders”. I’ve had several requests for this class and thought that the new year is a great time to explore this theme. Other requests have been for journals, so I’m combining both themes with a very relaxed start to the year. If you have a journal, 2019 diary or notebook and would like to decorate some pages with borders, then bring it along. If you don’t have a journal, come along and decorate some tiles instead. It is up to you!

If you need any encouragement or motivation to start a journal visit UNESCO SIX exhibition at the State Library of New South Wales. This is an amazing collection of First Fleet Journals, WWI Diaries and notebooks. I visited there today. You can read more about this on the State Library website.

Pocket Diaries
Pocket diaries by Miles Franklin. Stella Maria Sarah Miles Franklin – ‘Stella’ to her family (activist, feminist, writer)
on display at the State Library, New South Wales

Week 4 (6 Week Zentangle Workshop)

It’s week 4 already! The 6 week Zentangle Workshop is flying past so quickly.

I just had to post a picture of the beautiful artworks that my students produced this week. Everyone was challenged with “ellish” and they conquered this interwoven tangle.

Each week I am so impressed with the way everyone has grown in their Zentangle journey- it’s such a pleasure to be part of the journey.
