Review: This would be a fantastic book to keep a teen busy or someone wanting to do art but who can "only doodle;"-- I got it for myself - I am an artist and simply became intrigued looking through this book when I was shopping for books on mixed media and encaustic. There were a few zentangle books on desertcart (I'd never heard of zentangle prior to this shopping search experience) but this one seemed to have some of the coolest designs that appeared more organic than like Indian prints. (I am not sure how else to describe my choice via the comparisons of the suggestions desertcart gave me when shopping other than that.) Many years ago I owned a pottery painting studio and I have thought so many times since about the woman who worked for days on a large platter and did it all in black and white with these simply tiny designs...the thing was FANTASTIC when she was done. I tried to copy it once out of memory and couldn't. As soon as I saw books on "Zentangle" I realized it must be an art form I was unaware of. This is basically very cool doodles you could do with a sharpie marker. The book is filled with practice pages and filled with loads of ideas. What's ideal about that is it could keep a teen busy for hours learning to create these designs and be able to use them over and over. What's great for ME is that it lends itself to creating a very cool art piece of your own in any time you have to simply sketch out more and more designs. I plan to buy a large sheet of watercolor paper or use it on a large canvas that I can later frame and just leave it out on my dining room table to play with as I have time. Even better, you could create an awesome art piece that your entire family makes together. If you look through the book you see this is simply about learning to make the basic shapes then fill in the spaces between them after you create the shapes so that you have endless doodles everywhere. What I love about the book is that it's not just abstract shapes. It also shows you how to add in organic elements like a hummingbird or fish in your work, and fill them in with the Zentangles. I get the "Zen" part of the name as well. Art takes your mind away from anything troubling it, and the repetitive strokes and creation are very Zen and very peaceful elements for the mind. This would be an amazing book to have should you ever know anyone sick or in the hospital as there is little to do sitting in bed and reading and the TV grow tiresome. Bring them this and a box of thin tip markers and you'd likely be loved for it. This could create hours of fun and result in actually learning a new hobby that could parlay into some cool art pieces for one's home. Better yet, they take your mind away from pain when you do activities like this... The book intrigued me as I flipped through what pages I could see on desertcart. The book thrilled me far more once I got it. Very simple instructions and step by step guides for the beginner but cool enough designs to remain intrigued as you become an expert.
Review: Great introduction to Zentangling - I purchased this to put together a gift for someone who needs to learn how to relax. Combined with the Sakura micron pens, a basic sketch pencil set & the Strathmore Artist Tiles sketch pad it was a great start up kit. . As an artist I understand the authors' point about getting into a "zone" while you are drawing. It is really similar to what one tries to achieve with zen meditation. Tangling allows one to focus your concentration while letting worrisome thoughts drift away from you. It is relaxing and anyone of most any age can do it easily. Our 6 yr. old grandaughter had been creating some amazing patterns. But if you were to tell someone to relax by drawing they usually say, "I can't draw". But anyone can doodle -- and tangling is sort of doodling with purposefulness. Once they get into it everyone has been surprised out how well their tangles turn out. This is terrific gift for anyone who has always wanted to be able to draw but thinks they cannot. This is more than a book of zentangle patterns, although there are plenty of those to keep you busy. It is more of a workbook with lots of space to practice, experiment & complete your own zentangles. There was quite a number of zentangle guides to choose from -- glad I picked this one. Well worth the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *Amazing Zentangle Art Book*
*by C***H on April 8, 2013*

This Zentangle book has it all! It is simply Awesome! If you are new or old to Zentangle, you are going to LOVE this book. It starts with tools of the trade and explains what Zentangle is and swiftly moves on to the 50 inspiring projects and designs to make (which you can branch off to use with your own ideas and that makes the ideas limitless!). This is a nice meaty book. For those of you used to the small, more limited books or ten page instruction books, this book will make you smile - widely! There are four CZTs who authored this book so there are different flavors of Zentangle to enjoy. This book also goes beyond the tiles. They have their purpose naturally, but this book recommends different papers and pens and things to use as well as so many new ideas to expand your Zentangle Art. This is the Zentangle Book as far as I am concerned. There are a few that I really adore and enjoy, but none of them compare to this one. This book is my new favorite! Not only is the format large, it's also a workbook with plenty of space to try the new tangles and all of the ideas presented in the book. From birds and fish to detailed fairies, to frames, mandalas and glitter Zentangle, this wonderful book gives you lots of fresh ideas that could become frameable art around the house! The Art Of Zentangle shows you step by step many cool tangles-from easy to difficult. The projects are presented in stages with many of the final versions shown with bright colors! I can't say enough good about this book! I love, love, love it and I would give it 10 stars if possible. If you are curious about Zentangle, get this book! If you are not new to Zentangle, get this book! If you've put away your Zentangle stuff and want a fresh, new look, you know what I'am going to say...Get this book!!
