I belong to Mosaic which is a Zentangle app used for CZT's to share, appreciate and enjoy Zentangle art.  We can upload our tiles and share them with other CZT's around the world to appreciate and get inspiration.  One aspect on the app is called Tangles, Tips, & Techniques and can be used as a wonderful learning tool and inspiration.  A few nights ago I worked these tiles as a practice of the pattern Crescent Moon.  Rick Roberts shared this video on Kitchen Table Tangle called Crescent Moon Revisited.  Below find the other two tiles I did using only Crescent Moon tangle.
This last tile is our newest 3Z tiles, in tan, white or black.
On August 11 - 13 I will be part of a Zentangle Workshop at Insight Awareness in Homewood, Illinois.  The two botanical tiles above will be what I will be teaching that weekend.  The first tile is a design by Alena Light and it was challenging because the design is a mandala without using a compose, you build the circular design as you draw it.  I felt this was a beautiful piece and one that can be a challenge to learn.  The secon botanical was inspired by Sharla Hicks, CZT.  It drawn on a tan Zentangle tile and not only drawn with a black micron pen but also colored using a blue pastel pencil and a white chalk pencil.  For more information, please contact me.

A shelf in my previous study room.  Love my color pencil of the girl in the blue hat.  The design is by Pat Lentine, I did this painting in her class, a favorite.
