Just wondering if anyone has done a Zentangle swap. I just discovered them and they are fun to do.

What is a Zentangle swap? What is a Zentangle?

Never heard of it. Sounds interesting.

Don't be sorry that it's over... Be glad that it happened.

Hi,
There is a great article on Zentangle in the Mary Jane's Farm Magazine Vol 11 #4 June-July 2012 issue, pages 38-39. For those of you who may not have a copy of that you can go to http://www.zentangle.com to learn more about it and its benefits aside from just plain fun.
Have fun!
Annie

I'd do it... Could we make them a standardized size so they would all display well together?

Zentangles are usualy 4 inches by 4 inches, done in black and white. Most people use a black 01 Micron pen . There are lot's of videos on youtube about how to do them. I just discovered them last week so don't know much about them yet, just that I have had fun doing them. Lesley....I am fairly new to this swap stuff so would have NO idea how to moderat a swap.

I looked at the videos, there are some beautiful ones. I liked the one made in the circle...I have done something similar but this is pretty.

I would love to do this. I am a fan of Zentangle and have a couple of books on it.

Marcie,
Can you put a picture of one that you have done? I have never done one but will join the swap if you will host it. Couldn't be that hard if only a few do it.
