Zentangle Landscapes

This project proved to be both very challenging and a lot of fun. Creating pattern isn't as easy as it looks. Zentangle patterns can be difficult to think up. We used some 4-step Zentangle pattern hand-outs to get going but most of us created our own complex patterns as well. The landscape format gave this "doodle" drawing a new layout and scratch-art and tooling foil gave the project some varied texture. Varied line thickness was also highlighted.

  1. These are absolutely beautiful. Great idea to do them on colored card stock. The tooling foil and scratch paper are great touches. I wonder if I could do this with my sixth graders....how many class periods did these take to complete?
