Browsing for tips on Watercolor backgrounds I stumbled on this…. And Lo and Behold… Kelly Blouin??? Are you kidding me? The epic Zentangle Girlie! What a coincidence that In unpacking my studio for the 10th time today I found much of my Zentangle and watercolor tiles from 2014 - 2017 wow great memories! So many old bits to prompt new Artsyfartsy Fun!

[@audreyshantzart]

Ha! I just had lunch with Kelli today. She’s awesome. I’m so glad you know her too! Happy painting!

[@cieloescarlata2710]

Please Audrey enable notifications so I can know when you post a new video. Thanks!

[@audreyshantzart]

I’m working on figuring this out! Thanks for pointing out the need for it. I’m learning. 🙃

[@marnyr9610]

This is so much fun, I love watching both of you, I have a question, could we add salt to these for a different effect also?

[@audreyshantzart]

Absolutely you can! Try it at different times as the watercolor paint dries to get different effects and see what you like!

[@audreyshantzart]
