Zentangle is all the rage nowadays. Described by some as meditation for the artist, it's a drawing that consists of unique patterns and lines to form something. Sometimes, it's abstract. Other times, it forms a familiar picture. People say that it helps them meditate, improves their focus, and boosts their confidence. If you're new to Zentangle, you may have plenty of questions. How much art skill do I need? What are the requirements? Can I draw it on anything, or does it need a certain format? Can I clear my mind before I draw, so that it's easier on me? Are there patterns I can use as a reference?

How did I not know about this? It's fun yet it's also meditation!! :)
The book describes what a zentagle is & what it isn't. It's NOT a doodle since that doesn't require concentration & focus. Each zentagle is different & uses at most 3 different "strokes". You use a pen, not a pencil & a better grade of paper with no lines & harder to tear
The book gives some examples of zentangles ( which I'm sure all of us have done something similar if not a zentangle at some time just didn't know it)
It's a form of meditation since you focus on the zentangle only. No multitasking They say it's the ultimate meditation, yet you don't need to be an artist or know anything about art or drawing. I tried a few & I'm hooked. Now all I need is to cut more pieces of paper the size they describe & I can make more & more of these :)
Recommend this book if you enjoy meditation , want to learn to focus & to just sit, relax, & let your mind make some nice art while practicing zentangles
Nice intro to Zentangle. Too bad the author didn't think it was necessary to include illustrations of all of the tangles. The explanations were good, but visuals would have been better. I would have awarded at least one more star if illustrations had been included.
