Zentangle Challenge #25




This week Genevieve Crabe took over the reigns from Laura, our Diva, and challenged us to make a Zendala. The plain outline she provided is intriquing by itself, and the idea of filling it with tangles was scary and exciting. I did rough drafts, looked at all my collected tangles, went out on the internet looking for inspiration, and thought about it when I wasn't near a pen or my tile. One of the fun things about these challenges is you get to expand your horizons in non-threatening ways. Everyone is so friendly, and there is a spirit of community on the challenges. I actually woke up yesterday morning half dreaming about what I was going to do in a certain space. Thinking about, and making Zentangles puts me in a wonderful creatively energetic space that enhances my abilities in other areas of my life. I am also much more agreeable when I am in a good Zentangle flow! Hooray for Zentangles! Thank you, Genevieve, for such a fun and interesting challenge!
