Recently on the Zentangle® Mosaic App, Rick and Maria called for people to post their very first tiles in "humble beginnings" As I look back through my body of work, I was able to locate the very first tile I ever did. Back in 1995, when I first discovered the art of Zentangle®. The first tangles I learned was Crescent Moon, where I learned how to aura a shape. Hollibaugh, a tangle which teaches the the skill of drawing behind. The tile was rounded out by Myst, a simple tangle which looks a little like rain, and a BB which looks rather like like a row of books on a shelf. " Here are my "humble beginnings".  Later as my skills increased, I redid this first tile. I used the same tangles. BB now became the border. Myst and crescent Moon nestled inside the Hollibaugh. I learned how to shade without the whole tile becoming a dark mess. The second tile was done early in 2017.

I have been tangling since 2015. I found out about Zentangle from a colleague who had taken a class. Unfortunately, the person with whom they took the class, lived a considerable distance from me. Searching the Zentangle Website I found a Certified Zentangle Teacher much closer to me. After classes with her, for the best part of a year. She showed me that this was an art form I could feel comfortable with and find the creativity that I didn't think was there. The rest they say is history. In April 2017, I traveled to Providence RI to attend the training to become a certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT). I am privileged to be CZT 26.
