Zentangled T-Shirts

When my Husband saw my yellow T-shirt, he was blown away and asked if I do one with a drawing of his electric bass going at an angle and Zentangles all around it leaving the tangle patterns up to me. That made it even funner to do. He asked one thing of me, if I add color to the neck of his bass. This bass actually has blond colored wood, but this was the lightest color fabric paint I can find. Hubby was beside himself when he saw the finished results.

The Yellow T-shirt is my very first one I ever Zentangled. I decided to design a yellow t-shirt for myself first. I used freezer paper ironed on the inside of the shirt in the areas I knew I was going to draw on, turned it right-side out and started drawing. I used a sharpie marker in both a fine and extra fine point. I also found a grey fabric marker to adding shading.

Zentangled Papier Mache Box

I purchased this 4" Box with a lid and painted it white gesso and gave it a day to let dry before I drew zentangles on the sides and top. I used a sharpie paint pen and dip pens. I'm amazed by those dip pens. I haven't played with those since elementary school and collage.

Zentangled Papier Mache Skull

I purchased a papier mache skull from Beverly's Crafts, painted it with white Gesso like I did with the Zentangled Box and drew Zentangles with a sharpie paint pen, dip pen and sharpie markers. The paint pen and dip pen works the best on an items primed with gesso. The sharpie markers don't work as well once you use them on a surface painted with gesso paint.

Mandela

Here is one of the first small Mandela I created in my Zentangle Journal on the 27th of September.

Tangle Pattern Tile Roof Top

I drew this pattern from a photograph I took of the Roof of an Indian Restaurant that opened up not far from where I live. Good food too if you like Indian Food. The Indian Restaurant I like a little better than this one where I live is the one in Alameda, California not far from where I work. This restaurant (Near my Home) has a neat looking tile roof that made a nice pattern.

Tangle Pattern I created

The idea of this Tangle pattern came to me of a Song I kept singing in my head call "Tore-Down" written by Stevie Ray Von, but he's deceased and he was well known for his Rock and Blues songs. I enjoy the play on words when thinking of titles for my tangle patterns, so I decided to call this tangle pattern "Tore-Up".

Tangle Pattern I created

This tangle pattern idea came from seeing this drain I pass by every day I go walking and I liked the pattern it has when drawn out.

Front Cover of my Zentangle Journal I created. I took up bookbinding 3 months ago to create a journal for my SWAP partner in one of my Ravelry Groups and used some PVC glue (for binding pages and books together) to bind my pages together from high quality 140 lb WC paper I had cut to 6-1/2x6 inch. I used glossy Illustration Board for the outer cover and the black end-cover is fabric with paper on the back for bookbinding.

Tangle Pattern I created

How I came up with this design? I got inspired from seeing some beautifully drawn female portraits on Flickr. I converted a photograph of myself into a photo copy black and white image and trace the light and dark segments onto my tangle pattern card. The scribbling I did to fill in the image reminded me of a single strand of my natural hair, so that's how I came up with the name of my tangle pattern, "Nappy". I'm planning on doing other family member's portraits in this method later on.
