    Good idea, I will try to figure it out! (I’ll get it but just don’t know how until I hunt a little. 😉

Your designs are…drop…dead…gorgeous!
Thank you so much for sharing your skill and art with others, you are so so generous!
Beautiful work, and you must be very sharp in order to deconstruct patterns in your mind! Or however you do it, to make the instructions fit in 6 boxes or less!

  That’s how I discovered the ‘posh name’ for doodling! (although the originators see it very differently)

I just found your site although I have been doing zentangle for about a year. You have the most beautiful patterns I have ever seen. Wow. I’m busy incorporating them into my obsessive tangling (just ask my family).

What pens would you recommend? Im currently using Rymans black fineliners, which seem pretty ok but would love some advice if there is something better.

  Hi Jan – welcome to the wonderful world of tangling! I use any pigment based fine liner/technical pen. The Copic outliners have replaceable ink and nibs. Sakura make the ‘official’ pens. Aim to find something comfortable to use that has good ink flow, fixed width tip, and is permanent and lightfast when dry. And Leicester not all that far from Notts 🙂

Of all the tangles out there, I am always so attracted to yours- the precise geometric theme with a taste of organic shapes and flowing movement- I see Art Nouveau, Illuminated scrolls, delicate and under-noticed carvings from cathedrals… Please keep working and sharing, you are an inspiration to so many of us!
