Spirals and Dots

I can spiral and dot all day long. What is it about them that I like so much?

I Could Have "Zenned" All Night...

The process of creating these tiles really is meditative.  I feel like I'm learning to color outside the lines. No limits. No boundaries.  I have no destination in mind.  I just let things flow randomly.  It's amazingly liberating.

As a Montessori teacher, my colleagues and I always say, "It's the process, not the result, that's important."  Engaging in the creation of these daily tiles, it is driven home to me yet again...It is the process that is important.

The time spent on the tiles has quickly become a sacred time during which I re-center and feel grounded.  I do my tiles mostly in the evening. After a hard day's work, I am nurtured and calmed by the tangles. It really is Zen.

I didn't get a chance to post yesterday's tile.  Here it is.

Experimentangling

I'm having a lot of fun with this. It's really addictive! Here's today's tile.

Zentangle #1-4

My objective is to post one Zentangle a day as part of my 365 days of creativity journal project inspired by this book. Today is my fourth day "zentangling." For this post, I'm including my first three Zentangles with today's tile.
