Zentangle mandalas

Hallo,
   Showing some zentangle pieces that I did as samples for my 'Colorful Zentangled Mandalas' class for our all volunteer group  here in town. All the teachers and admin are volunteers and the fees for classes are very low, just to cover admin costs and for some of the classes a fee for class supplies.
   These samples are a base pattern of a mandala from a set of books by Ben Kwok - then you fill in the mandala with zentangle patterns.
   Next I colored them either with watercolors or pencils.
   The first 2 pics are the same mandala and patterns - first one before coloring and the second one after watercoloring.
  The third picture is the same base mandala as the first with different tangles, also colored with watercolor.
  The last 2 pics are before and after with a different mandala and patterns and then after colored in with colored pencils.
     The books by Ben Kwok are available on Amazon and he has a bunch - mandalas and several books with all kinds of animals and one or 2 with different objects.
   All for today - Take Care

Tangled Valentine

 Hallo,
  A quick little post today - I have been doing a bit of Zentangle again as I am teaching a Zentangle class with our local all volunteer 'Center for Life Long Learning"
  I used a heart medallion from the Medallion  Tangle Easy book by Ben Kwok.
  Once I had it tangled, I colored it in and then just glued the 2 together with a thin piece of cardboard and a ribbon for a sweet Valentines decoration.
  Not too much new for me - started an account on 'Red bubble' to sell things with my art printed on them....slowly getting stuff up on that site....pop over sometime if you like "www.redbubble.com" My user name is 'Tera Fujan"
     All for now - Have a great week!!!

Hummingbird colored markers

Hallo,
  Welcome to Wednesday - a bit over hump day for me as I have Friday off this week!!!
  Another version of the hummingbird from the 'Tangled Easy" book by Ben Kwok.
  I copied the original page from the book onto the 'cryogen white' cardstock from Paper Temptress - which is my favorite paper for coloring and copics and is a great paper for copying the book pages to also.
  On this one I used 005 colored microns to tangle the hummingbird.
  I just love how all my hummingbirds turned out - now I just need to get them framed pretty.
  Have a great day - off to work again, and again, and again.....  :)

Hummingbird Colored pencil

Hallo,
  Well Hummingbird part 2 - the colored version.
This is the same hummingbird as yesterday only I colored it (after copying onto a sheet of 'cryogen white') with polychrome colored pencils.
  The hummingbird starts out as an outline  and comes from a book by Ben Kwok called 'Tangled Easy - Birds". I copied the book sheet onto cryogen white cardstock (my favorite for copics, coloring and in this case micron pens) and then I tangled it using a 005 micron pen - after which I copied it again so I could color it and still have my black and white version.
   I have one more version for you tomorrow again so come on back :)

Zentangle Hummingbird - black and white

Hallo,
  Just a quick stop in here this am to start the week.
This humming bird started out as the outline drawing of the hummingbird from a book by Be Kwok - 'Tangle Easy" - Birds.
  I tangled this one using 005 micron pens. I used 'cryogen white' cardstock from 'Paper Temptress' which is my all time favorite cardstock for coloring and copics.
  I took the book page from 'Tangle Easy' and copied it onto the cryogen white. I copied it again once I tangled it and colored it using polychrome pencils - stayed tuned tomorrow :)
  All for now - gotta head off to that work thang :)
   Take Care
