The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns.  These patterns are called tangles.  If you can hold a pen and print your name, you can draw using this calm method.  Even if you think “I have no artistic talent”, you do – you can tangle!  Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas created this method, and Zentangle is a registered trademark of Zentangle Inc.  Learn more at  www.zentangle.com
