Good zentangle Jen.Your patterns are great, I really like the patterns with the flowers. I emailed my zentangle hearts to two neices who loved them and couldn't wait to colour them.
Bonnie C & C most welcome / appreciated
Jen, you have some really nice designs on the Zentangle egg. I also like the flowers - both those on white and those on black. Very pretty. It is fun to do and can be additive. Also, very relaxing.

Jen C & C's always welcome
Jen, your reference to doing the figure eights and filling in the spaces is exactly what I remembered when I started doing these. I remember in school you had to draw all these free flowing lines to music and then filled them in with patterns and colours. We didn't have access to these wonderful patterns though.
Marsha you have given us a bunch of great ideas I know of several I want to try hopefully we can all post a few this month looking forward to a lot of them
Jen you've started us out with a nice zentagle egg just what we need to kick start us all nice post
Jim C&C welcomed

C&C welcome!
Jen, a beautiful Zentangel! It's so neat to go from one beautiful pattern to another, looking at them all. My favorite patterns in the egg are the beautiful swooping designs that look like flower petals or butterfly wings in the lower left quadrant of the egg. Afraid to try ... It just looks addictive!
Fred, this combination of materials works wonderfully together and the soft focus as you get further away is beautiful. It's an excellent rendering of an old homestead with its roof dipping slightly in the center. I remember outhouses from a visit to an elderly person in the country when I was small (there was a pump in the yatd, too) and from Girl Scout camp about 55 years ago.

Fred, Very nice old house with suitable bathroom addition! You have captured a bright sunny day. Are they house hunting or just coming home?
Alex, Kim, Jim thanks for the kind words. So just for Marsha I spent the evening making coloured eggs. Not sure they are really Zentangles more just coloured eggs. I think I prefer black and white. it is more relaxing to do. I got new pens and a book on Zentangles but I think it was just too much information!
About 10 x 14 on recycled Bristol paper smooth side.and Steadtler triplus fineliner pens.
Not entirely successful and they look like they are on a flying carpet!!
Thank you everyone for liking the pictures...
FRED, I put the old buildings in just for you,,, I'm glad to see the old OH back...Your roof and siding are spectacular
I'm asking as well, are they looking to move into this lovely abode or just looking as tourists in an old ghost town... don't forget about that old car...
JEN: OMG.... I love the black and white one BUT the colored Zentangle is absolutely beautiful.... this is certainly worth framing.... Wonderful Job. I'm working on my first zentangle tonight too, but my eyes are going crosseyed, but yours in very inspirational.
