Materials :
any type of paper
gel pens
OPTIONAL : relaxing music of your choice/or a glass of wine(whatever works for you!)
1. For beginners, we recommend that you start with a doodle sheet. On a piece of paper, create as many patterns as you want. It could be as simple as dots, lines and zigzags. No rules, just doodle your heart out.
2. On another sheet of paper, draw an outline of a drawing that you want to ‘zentangle’ .
3. Freely divide your drawing into sections.
4.Using your doodle sheet , pick a pattern. Repeat the pattern until the whole section is filled up.
