I have been working on the last of the tiles people sent to me in July. The theme for July was lollipops. It was suggested that printemps might be a good tangle to represent lollipops. I received tiles from Germany, Texas and Canada. Some of the tiles were beautifully water colored. Here are the original tiles.    As you can see they were all beautifully drawn and colored. Sometimes I find myself intimidated, to finish tiles that are so beautiful. I worry that my choice of tangles might mot complement the tile, or that the originator of the tile might not like the way I finished it. The voice of self doubt. Then I remember that in the Zentangle® Method, there are no mistakes, only opportunities. With this in mind, I find myself more confident to complete the tiles. Here are my finishes to each of the tiles.    I needn't have worried, each person loved the way the tile had turned out. I felt some pride in the finishes, and I have tiles from from Zen friends around the world in my collection.

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.
