September 13th - New Beginnings
Begin (or re-commit to) your Zentangle journey at this beginners workshop. Perfect for beginners with no experience, but also great for experienced tanglers who want to return to the simplicity and magic of a first tile. Learn the history, philosophy and the basic steps of Zentangle. Apply these steps and practice some beginner tangles. Breathe, relax and enjoy the process, while creating your own original artwork to take home.
September 27th - Secret Garden Peek-A-Boo Cards
'Bijou' is a french word which means 'little jewel'. This class introduces Zentangle's beautiful 'Bijou' tiles. Smaller than the traditional Zentangle tiles, Bijou tiles make great miniature masterpieces which can be enjoyed individually or combined in lots of fun ways. They also make great gift tags. In this class we will use these delightful tiles to explore a variety of grid based tangles and 3D grid effects.
