Zentangle Pattern Ing in a Grid

I’m very fortunate to live in an area (Houston, TX) where there are several Certified Zentangle Teachers who live nearby. Once a month, a group of us get together at the home of Sandy Kelley-Jones and we have “Tangle Time”! At our most recent meeting in August 2022, Denise Kaplan, CZT, showed us a tile where she drew the Zentangle pattern Ing in a square grid. I loved it and became determined to figure out how she did it. With her permission, I’m sharing the steps to create this tile. I will provide a copy of the step-out on my Facebook page and on my Instagram account. You’re welcome to also take a screenshot or contact me at my email address [e-mail] if you prefer a PDF version.
Supplies you’ll need for this tile:
3.5” or 4” square tile (your choice of color)
Micron 01 pen (use your choice of size and color)
Graphite pencil or pastel pencil
Blending stump
Patterns used:
Ing by Zentangle, Inc.
Grid design by Denise Kaplan, CZT

[@notperfectzen]

You’re very welcome, Gwen. 😊 I'm really happy that it helped you. Mission accomplished! I hope you also have a great week!

Thank you for another great video, Barbara!

[@notperfectzen]

You are so welcome, Connie! Thank you for your comment - I really appreciate it!

[@marciajenkins819]

This one looks fun to do and I can’t wait to try it myself.

[@notperfectzen]

I hope you have fun with it! :)

[@savorthezen]

Love this Barbara! Great idea and demonstration. 😊

[@notperfectzen]

Thanks so much, Betty! 😊 I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@ingridscott91]

Thank you, Barbara, for that video. I love Ing. It was a bit confusing, but I oriented my tile after yours, so it worked out. Very pretty! :)

[@notperfectzen]

Hi Ingrid. You're welcome! :) I struggled with it in the beginning also, but I'm glad that you were able to work it out. I hope you have a great week!

[@nickimcpheehals572]

Well somewhere along the line I got lost in the process...lol! I will keep practicing! Thank you!

[@notperfectzen]

I also had to do it a few times, just carefully follow the steps and it will come together! :)

[@nickimcpheehals572]

I tried it again tonight. I found where I messed up making my grid the first time. Tonight, it was much better. I still messed up but just a bit. I should have continued in pencil first! lol! Wish we had a CZT or two in our area. Rancher country in a population of MAYBE 85 or so. I'm retired so I have time to tangle, not many have that luxury out here!

[@notperfectzen]

I also messed up a few times trying to figure this out, so I totally understand. Yes, I'm lucky to have CZTs close by. But we are all fortunate to have KZbin and many CZTs who share their knowledge. Have a great week, Nicki!

Art by me it’s a hard one will post a draw along later I think it’s ok .

[@notperfectzen]

It was a challenge for me in the beginning also.

[@nancypearson4952]

Barbara where do you get the parchment paper and what is it called exactly? This is quite the pattern but certainly do able. With pencil and eraser in a sketchbook of course! Thank you!

[@notperfectzen]

Hi Nancy! I bought the parchment paper from Amazon a few years ago after seeing a post from Lynn Mead. I will send you an email with more details.
