I have enjoyed participating with the Zentangle community following the Project Packs from Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas and their team. Project Pack 23 is particularly special because we are all celebrating Zentangle’s 20th anniversary of the first public class.
Let's Take a Journey
Celtic knots have been used for various purposes throughout history, including in illuminated manuscripts, stone carvings, jewelry, and other forms of artwork. They have a rich symbolic significance in Celtic culture, often representing themes like eternity, interconnectedness, continuity, and spiritual beliefs. Some Celtic knots have specific meanings associated with them, while others are more abstract and open to interpretation.

Map Tangling - Say What?
A tangling map is just a pool of color that has been blown around to achieve “contents” with “peninsulas” and “islands”. Annie sent students a video in advance of the class, showing us how to create our “maps”. I used Ecoline liquid watercolours to create my maps. Naturally, the watercolour needs to dry completely before tangling begins.
