A pack of 40+ Zentangle patterns combined with my 2020 Pandemic comics = QuaranTangles Tangle Cards!
Each card is 2.5x3.5" and they come in a clear, two-piece box designed to store and protect.
What began as a weekly drawing challenge, turned into a year-long, cartoon chronicle of the Pandemic. Jake Parker's Inktober52 challenged us to illustrate a word prompt each week, ink it, and post it to Instagram. Simple. But my personal motto is "Anything worth doing, is worth over-doing." So I added in a few extra rules of my own: • Include the word prompt in the drawing. • Include myself/my glasses. • Include a (somewhat) randomly chosen Zentangle® pattern.
It wasn't until the challenge was over and I looked back through the year that I realized the weekly drawings had become my comic journal of the pandemic-lockdown-quarantine-insanity. Each of the 47 cards is 2.5"x3.5".
The front of each card features the tangle name at the top with a white box, for those who like to assign codes for types of patterns, etc. "ZT" means the tangle is considered a classic Zentangle pattern. "SB" ("Sandy Bartholomew") means it's a tangle from one of my books.
The back of each card shows step-outs - how to draw the featured pattern, the name of the tangle, and the number of the weekly word prompt.
