Zentangle Inspired Art
Yay! I must admit, I did a little cheer when these new 3Z art tiles arrived… (I know it’s an art-thing.) Still don’t you remember as a kid the excitement of a new box of crayons? Wait, I still get excited over a new box of crayons…
So, yes, I opened the new 3 Z triangle tile box with that kind of child-like anticipation. I wasn’t disappointed. The new Zentangle tiles are made from the same lovely Fabriano Tiepolo paper as the square tiles. The petite triangles measure (3.5 x 3.5 x 3.5.)
For the holidays, I experimented with making ornaments and bookmarks by punching two holes in the top corner and looping in a piece of cord…and violà there you have a little gift:) In the new year, I want to try the bookmark idea with different types (less holiday looking) cord. Maybe a pretty green or blue?
- For the ZIA designs, I used a bit of gold gel pen, water color paint, and red Prismacolor pencil and the tangles include: Verdigoh, Icanthis, Tipple, Semoj, Scrolled feather(ish)
I look forward to seeing what other Zentangle art enthusiasts create on these new little gems. Also, take some time to check out the lovely 3Z triangle tiles on Maria and Rick’s Zentangle blog.
Happy New Year! Jill
I just put away my little triangle in my ornament box – it will be fun to get it out next year and think of you!
