Inktober 2022 Review

Inktober 2022 Review

For several years I have been participating in the Inktoker artist challenge. Inktober originated as an “all” art challenge and in 2015 Stephanie Jennifer adapted it for our beloved Zentangle practice.

Following along with prompts throughout the month helps me maintain my drawing skills and facilitates my daily practice. I like to follow the prompts supplied in the handout from 7F5R.com because I don’t need to think about what tangle to draw next. That decision has been made for all who participate.

Project Pack 14 Review

Project Pack 14 Review

This wonderful project pack was released in May 2021, during Mental Health Awareness month in the US. The Zentangle Headquarters team brought us a spirited series of classes developing the artist we often hide within ourselves. They were able to highlight a greater awareness of our own mental health and how our art contributes to positive feelings, reduction of stress, and a general increase in confidence. I personally have experienced these amazing outcomes.

Project Pack 12 Review

Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas along with their illustrious team at Zentangle headquarters, create wonderful Zentangle art packs several times per year. Project Pack 12 was originally released in December 2020. I was super busy at the end of 2020 and did not have time to work through the creative process presented in this renaissance art pack. So here we are at the end of 2021 and I have finally finished creating the amazing art tiles.
