Grown Up Craft Night: Zentangle Method

Grown Up Craft Night is BAAAAAACK! Join us for our next monthly “Grown Up Craft Night.” All supplies are provided, you just need to show up! September’s Craft: Introduction to the Zentangle Method - Artist Delsie Dunn will led participants in the Zentangle Method, which is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns. We call these patterns, tangles. You create tangles with combinations of dots, lines, simple curves, S-curves and orbs. These simple shapes are the “Elemental Strokes” in all Zentangle art. These patterns are drawn on small pieces of paper called “tiles.” We call them tiles because you can assemble them into mosaic Zentangle art is non-representational and unplanned so you can focus on each stroke and not worry about the result. There is no up or down to Zentangle art. If fact, you can most easily create Zentangle art by rotating your tile as you tangle -- always keeping your hand in a relaxed position. You don’t need to know what a tangle is going to look like to draw it. You just need to know the steps. The result is a delightful surprise. It is so much fun to experience this in a group! Delsie has been a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT) since 2014 and has been teaching on/off since then, sharing this delightful methodology at our local libraries, community centers, private parties, and more. 🎨 Space is limited, so registration is required.
