Thank you so much for taking the time to answer our questions. It is nice to know that someone as talented and experienced as you still has some of the same issues with the blank page as I do! LOVE your work!!
i found that your answers to all those questions were so inspiring. i'm just starting this zentangle thingy and sometimes i feel down when mine doesn't look the way i wanted. but listening to your answers makes me feel better and i just need to keep on practicing. thank you so much! :)
After watching so many of your entangle vids I feel now that I am confident to incorporate them in a lot of drawings I do. In fact, while I was at the geal linn my teacher asked everyone to draw out some letters that she would then stick up in a specific order to spell machaire raghtai. I used some zectangles as the filler for my bubble writing and when ever everyone saw it I pretty much became artist of the class and any time my teacher needed a little title drawn up she would ask me to do it
This Q and A was interesting. My college students got a lot of good info that helped them get started on their Zentangle Portrait they are assigned for their final art project for this semester. Do more like this for all of to learn from your experience!
I always loved the zentangle but had no idea how it was called. You are amazing! Thank you so much for helping! I started personalizing my school notebooks and they turned our pretty cool.
My first experience with zentangle whas when I was studying how to be a teacher we had an introduction to art class. The lector always used to say just copy a patter over and over. Someone in the class asked what patterns will be best to use. The answer was the writing patterns you learned when you first started to learn how to write in GrR (Kindergarten). So I used them and only them to creat a "cowfish". The assignment was to combine a land animal and see creature using line art. And that is something I do with my Gr1 four times in the year so that they can see their own progress. (I give them the outline of my original catfish and they fill it up). So I think children can learn to do zentangle as soon as they learn to write or sooner. Like you said depends on the child.
Someone asked blending tips for colored pencil. They suggested oil for oil painting. There are some cheaper other solutions. You can use Baby oil. Dip a q-tip in baby oil and rub onto colored area after you get all your colors down. Always start from light colors then to dark so you don't get a muddy color. Also you can use mineral spirits in the same way as the baby oil. With the baby oil you need to be careful so you don't put too much oil on your page. And I suggest a different q-tip for the different color groups.
Tiffany...thanks for the q&a with this beautiful tangle. Your practical and artistic advice is very helpful. I stumbled into zentangle 4 mo ago and am loving it!
Hi Tiffany! Thanks for another great video, very inspiring, I just woke up, saw the alert for your video, watched it, now I am raring to get up and tangle......congratulations for selling your tangles on esty.com as well.
Great as usual, lol. My question is how do you decide to color or not to color? I'm rarely satisfied when I use color, but my choices are not great. Just and FYI for comment readers, I tangled on ceramic Christmas ornaments, they really ate up my micron pen tips and I used a black sharpie (usually never use those because of bleed through), when I sprayed an ornament with a sealant the sharpie ink changed to a purple color.
Love your work. Actually I prefer the look of the black and white but the coloring is nice too. You can blend your colored pencil with gamsol or plain cheap baby oil on a q-tip. Hope that helps. TFS
Tiffany first your work is amazing...you are the best zetangler I have ever seen. My question did you start on smaller pieces of paper when you first started and is there a special kind of paper that works better,then others? Or would you recommend a tag or index cards to start out with at first? I love the idea using color in your designs.....thanks. Judy again beautiful!!!!!!!!
Your designs are really amazing. However one thing I notice Is that they look more sophisticated when you don't color them. However that is just my opinion. Shading makes them really unique.
Wow just wow I mean there is now way to describe what I think of this like literally i have no words. Your work is oh stupid spell check i mean auto correct anyway your work is just amazing. I thought I was a good artist I mean I guess I am but compared to THAT not at all. I am just in awe I started out and it hurts me to say this but I started out like oh this is probably going to be boring, oh well i have nothing better to do but then three or four minutes into the video I am like oh my goodness,.i wonder what she will do next. Great job keep doing what you are doing and it is outrageous! Amazing truly. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
it is really nice painting and not easy i have question please i started to draw from long time ago and copying some thing in front of me is not hard but when ever i want to draw something new from my brain i might start to draw it but later when i want to add things to the painting icant go no further is there a good way to make me draw without keep looking on other pictures thank you
Have you joined the Ornation Creation group ong Facebook? Ben gives these awesome templates to tangle, animals and mandalas and such. It really is awesome and I think you could make these into somehting really awesome
Hi it is me again! I have one question. I am using uni pin fine line pens because they are ten rand (0.89 dollar) cheaper than the Pigma Micron pens. Now is it like that in America also like that and are they good pens to use? They work good for me but since I haven't used any other kind I just wanted to make sure.
Question: how long does one Pigma pen last you and how many do you keep in stock to prevent constantly running out? Thank you for doing this format. Very helpful.
I buy 3 sets every 3-4 months. They aren't all dry at that point but the ones I use the most are dry. This probably is not typical but I draw A LOT...even more than what I make videos for.
noooo... get a book called "Drawing with the right side of the brain" by Betty Edwards.. anyone can learn how to draw realistically if they follow all the exercises in that book.. its really good
I do think you could do this. It's a matter of adjusting the final look of your tangle to accommodate for the tremors. I recommend using a "sketch" type look to your drawings.
Hey Tiffany, if you don't have any inspiration, watch some of Lindsey Stirling's music videos. They are really inspirational. I hope this helps you. :)

I have been doing this type of drawing for years, I had no idea that it had a name or that others where doing it. So nice to see others works.

practice and go slow and start with smaller tiles. I promise you will improve in a short amount of time. Thanks for watching! :)

Yay i love it
Exquisite!
I can't use a ruler (my teacher setter this rule)
but this is AMAZING !!
I have hand tremors do u still think I could get into this, right now I just do an occassional doodling....
I do think you could do this. It's a matter of adjusting the final look of your tangle to accommodate for the tremors. I recommend using a "sketch" type look to your drawings.
I LOVE TO DROW, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ZENTANGLE IT LOOKS VERY INTERESTING, AND ITS MY FIRST TIME .
WELL YOU CAN START WITH NOT SCREAMING THAT MIGHT HELP
Joel V Norlin
Sometimes people that have trouble seeing small text use caps. ;-)
Cool
wow>>.>i love video ....I learned a lot
Can you please do the drawings at normal speed. I love your drawings they are stunning Thank you
Louise Widdrington that's a four hour video with the drawing alone
Look's dificult but i will try it ! Thanks for video '-'/ ^^
What was the website you use?
What websites do your u use to get tangles off?
what about prismacolor pens?
so how did you start?
cool
Where can i buy pigma micron pens in u Utah live close to a Michaels and j o Joann craft stores.
Booth have the pens but I order them off Amazon as it is cheaper!
We are doing this in school
nice
When you do start, where on the paper do you start?
It doesn't matter where you start but for some reason I typically start in the bottom left corner or right in the middle
what pen were you using at 8:04 ?
😇😇
started 2day. still not finished because i am a perfectionist.
i don't have those pens what other pens do you reccomend?
Just use any ball point pen or sharpie pen if u don't have those just use a regular pen
Any pen works really except each different pen she used is just to enhance the design
thx
She's right. But trust me, If you buy some micron pens, you won't be disappointed. Probably the best pens I've ever used.
how do you do those
One stroke at a time, that's how.
Can you draw normally though?
I am not sure what you mean by "normally". I have a pen in my hand and have put that pen to paper. I think that is about as normal as you can get!
I mean like scenery and people~ but nice zentangle btw!
Hey Tiffany, if you don't have any inspiration, watch some of Lindsey Stirling's music videos. They are really inspirational. I hope this helps you. :)
By the way this is a beautiful drawing, I love it.
Why fast motion videos? Can't follow it.
if u have a bad eraser that an help u blend
i cant draw realistic either
oh my salami!
do you want to buy this pen from me in low price?
:-)
wft?!?!?!?!?!
What are the weaving looking part called? It's beautiful. You drew it after the boxes,started it off with dots.
Wow just wow I mean there is now way to describe what I think of this like literally i have no words. Your work is oh stupid spell check i mean auto correct anyway your work is just amazing.
