Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, creators of Zentangle®, show how to tangle "betweed."

Zentangle is an easy to learn and relaxing method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns. We believe life is an art form and that Zentangle is an elegant metaphor for deliberate artistry in life.

  • The pen is a reproduction 1800's oblique pen holder with a vintage nib. M

  • Was that a compliment? I'm not sure how to respond..... I letter at the beginning because I am a lettering artist. And to give some credibility to my teaching....and I think it is a fun way to start the videos.....M

  • We only have so much time in these videos, you could certainly take as much time as it takes to be happy with your work. I am an artist, by trade (most of my life) and I tend to do things very quickly. I purposely slowed my pace down as much as I could. You can spend 15 minutes on a tile or luxuriate and spend 15 hours. It is all up to you. Enjoy the process, love the results.  Maria Thomas

  • While I don't deny the simple pleasure of the Zentangle, I must admit that the most skill I witnessed in this video was in the calligraphy at the beginning. Personally, the first 30 seconds of calligraphy distracted me from the next 14 minutes of Zentangle. And that pen was absolutely fantastic, with it's offset nib.

  • i think these would be perfect doodles to pass the time in class!

  • more please! :-)

  • awsome

  • I'm beginning a pen and ink project in my art class. the subject is a girl laying on the ground reading a book. My art teacher and I were trying to brainstorm what kind of whimsical thing I could do for the background. Now, I think I know what I can try! Sooooo pumped!!

  • I just want to know how to not fling ink on the page when inking. I've ruined a number of inkings because my pen spit ink. Lovely work.. it looks relaxing to do.

  • I don't know why anyone would think the calligraphy at the beginning was distracting. I was in awe of it. I've never heard of Zentangle before, but now I am going to give it a try. Thanks for the lovely video (and your website, where I plan to purchase your kit.)

  • The Calligraphy pen used in the beginning of this video....is it a speedball?
