Inktober Tangles 2022 • Day 8 • Snack

Welcome to Inktober Tangles 2022!
I am Anica Gabrovec, known as Zen Lines across social media, a Certified Zentangle® Teacher from Croatia, and I invite you to tangle with me every day. I am a full-time CZT and my lessons are available on zen-linea.com.
It is my intention to make this challenge easy for me and for you. For me, this means keeping it simple, which is why these videos are quite raw, instead of heavily edited, tangling is with the use of basic supplies and quick, and I am doing everything without overthinking or preparation. Which is actually in line with the Zentangle method. :)
Inktober Tangles 2022 prompts are brought to us by Stephanie Jennifer (thank you, Stephanie) and you can find the file with the prompts here: bit.ly/Inktobe....
Supplies used: square Renaissance paper tiles by Zentangle Inc., Micron PN pencil, graphite pencil, General Pencil´s White Charcoal pencil, Cretacolor´s Nero medium pencil, white Gelly Roll pens by Sakura (05, 08 and 10), blending stumps.
Zentangle is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns. It was created by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas. “Zentangle” is a registered trademark of Zentangle, Inc. To learn more, visit Zentangle.com.

Yummy Snacks Anica!💞 Thank you for sharing your story about learning to shade and highlight. "..started shading freely instead of fearfully. " I love that you made your Snacks with a little belly....they're perfect!

Thanks a lot for your feedback! 💓 I love the rounded and bold shapes. ✨

Your shading and highlights are always an inspiration for me. I love how you did Snack! Thank you for all of these Inktober 2022 videos!

Oh Anica your shading is exquisite! Love Snack, both tangling ….. and the eating kind too….. been doing lots of that while vacationing!
Many thanks.

Thank you so much! 💕 I try to minimize but enjoy them every once in a while. 😊

What you said about shading is interesting because I always notice you do a lot of shading and highlighting without worrying that there’s not enough of the beige background color in between. I learned from you that I could go straight from shade to highlight and it would look good and make visual sense.

Thanks for pointing that out! It’s difficult to even sometimes put into words what I do because it’s instinctive, so when someone describes it, it’s like learning something about yourself. 😊 Go big or go home! 😁😁😁

I would’ve never thought to call those bellies, that’s the cutest thing ever.
You’re right this doesn’t look like tomas’ usual geometric style. It’s great

[@ZenLinea]

Haha, I lean towards bellies 😅

Hello, Anica! It’s so nice to hear your greeting at the beginning of every video! 😁 Highlighting is “scary” for me just as you explained...I just try to follow and do my thing. 😉😂 Thanks for all of your helpful hints. 👍 ❤

[@ZenLinea]

You are so very welcome, Cindy! 💜 I love seeing your Inktober drawings and your shades and highlights look awesome!
