Zentangle Whilrlwind...well, it is March!

March 18 was the Zen & Zin.  We had such a good time!  Only Zen, no Zin.  We get a natural high just doing our art!  Here is a collage of the groups excellent efforts!

March 19 at Kerrville First United Methodist, I instructed some of my bible study group, Intro Class.

March 25, KACC Zendala Class.  The ladies were extremely proud of their Zendalas, as they well should be!


Then that afternoon, I hosted my first Open Class to previous students.  The project was an Exploding Box.  The most difficult thing to do here is to cut the squares to the specified dimensions.  But, then they all went together very nicely.  What a great way to display completed Tiles and Zendalas!

Black Tile Class...Someone's Watching Over Me

Have you ever experienced something and knew for certain that someone is taking care of you?  I had that very experience last Tuesday!  I was greeting my students for the day and they just kept coming!  I had confirmed with KACC, the art center where I have my classes, for 7 students.  No problem, plenty of supplies, an extra complete kit to spare.  But after 7 ladies walked into the door, another 5 came in!  I scrapped together enough supplies for the extra ladies, sans bags which were at home.  We just rearranged the room and made arrangements to get the bags to each one of them. Thank God!

It was a very energizing class! I taught using BLACK TILES.  Here is a class mosaic of the work, I included a few of mine also which illustrate other patterns taught in class.

 
 
Beautiful art created by twelve beautiful women!  We had a really good time using Vega, Crescent Moon, Printemps,(some of mine included Meer, Indy-Rella, and Cadent -variation, these were practiced in class). Supplies used:  black tiles, white charcoal, white jelly roll pens, soap stone sticks and a touch of a sparkle jelly roll pen. I always enjoy teaching these classes and discovering all of the differences in the tiles, even though everyone was doing the same lesson.  Cool, huh?

Next class:  March 18, 5:30-7:30 pm, Zen and Zin,  I bring the snacks you bring your drink.  A great way to end a work day.  The rest of the week will go a lot smoother when you take time for yourself!  Hope to see you there!  Please call KACC 830-895-2911 to sign upCost is $35.00 plus $10 for supplies.  If you have the black Micron supply kit you are all set. 

Also, I'm planning a Zendala Class for March 25, 9:00 - 11:30 am. KACC, $35. for class, plus basic supply kit if you haven't been to one of my classes before. Sign up as soon as possible.  If I have a large class I want to get a bigger room.

Remember to take some time to tangle 2 untangle, you will be more relaxed, more focused and more creative! 

Happy Tangling!
