Geinspireerd geraakt door het 365 project, a skull a day, van Noah Scalin, ben ik mijn eigen plan gaan uitwerken, ik wilde ook een 365 project starten.
Wat zijn zentangles: zwart wit tekeningen (tangles) met herhalende motieven, waarbij je even helemaal "weg" bent (zen)
Waarom freestyle: omdat ik me vrij voel mijn eigen stijl te tekenen.
Veel kijkplezier...
Well Branka, my English is not that good either ;-P but I give it a try, I have drawn this kind of black and white drawings in the past and one day I discoverd on the internet that it had a name!, so I called it zentangle, because I could completely identify with the explanation; tangle for drawing and zen for the state your in when you draw them. Till I found out, a bit later, that they mean a lot of patterns and have "rules" that´s not what I want,so I changed that in freestyle zentangles. They mean a lot of fun to me, an art to express myself on a totally different level. I sit down and let my mind do the work, and my hand of course ;-) I chose for freestyle zentangles as a daily project because it fits to the things I already do, it keeps the balance. It makes me feel good, although its difficult after almost 200 days of drawing.... :-)
So Yvonne, as my dutch is a bit crap ;), how come you have chosen to make zentangles?I find them interesting and quirky but what do they mean to you?
