Zentangle Inspired Artwork

Hi guys!  Today I am sharing with you 6 different zentangle inspired drawings I have done over the past few years.

Zentangle is basically the practice of creating art from intricate doodle-like patterns. The repetitive motion is said to help with anxiety and focus. The practice of Zentangle is similar to creating mandalas for therapeutic reasons.

Most of these art pieces combine elements of doodle art drawing with collage from women’s magazines. They were all done in my sketchbook using Sharpie markers.

This could be a fun project for adults or kids in art class!

Speaking of which, click here for a step by step guide on how to create Zentangle-inspired portrait artworks like the one above.

Several of these designs are available as prints and on other products in my Redbubble store and other shops.

This first one was inspired by Easter and the flowers of Spring.

It is also available as a greeting card from my Zazzle store.

For this piece, I pasted some gorgeous butterfly photographs in my sketchbook and then doodled around them.

This one combines a lot of different Zentangle inspired patterns but does not have any collage elements.  This one is not available as a print.

The next one incorporates different lips cut out of a women’s magazine, and is one of my favourites!
