First OKE - First Challenge

It took me a while to get the overview of Zentangle. I visited many blogs with fantastic Zentangles. 
Thereby I became aware of some competitions.
By Joey I found a weekly challenge of Monotangle. This week # 78 - OKE by Michele B.
I hope that I can join as a beginner. I enjoyed very much to tangle this pattern.

Es erforderte einige Zeit, um einigermassen die Übersicht über Zentangle zu bekommen.  
Ich besuchte viele Blogs mit fantastischen Zentangle. Dabei wurde ich auch auf Wettbewerbe aufmerksam. Bei Joey fand ich eine wöchentliche Monotangle challenge.

Es hat mir viel Freude gemacht, dieses Muster zu tangeln.

My first OKE

My First Ones / Meine Ersten

Recently, I became aware of Zentangle and was immediately excited by this methode. 
 Equipped with the books
"Das grosse Zentangle Buch" by Beate Winkler (CZT)
with the description of the most patterns and how they arise
and the introductory course "Freude mit Zentangle" Anya Lothrop (CZT) I started.

After some tentative experiments with pencil, I bought my first four PITT pens. My first Zentangle I painted according my own ideas, which I used with my porcelain painting.
  ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kürzlich wurde ich auf Zentangle aufmerksam und war sofort begeistert von dieser Zeichnuntgsmethode. Ausgestattet mit dem Buch
 "Das grosse Zentangle-Buch" von Beate Winkler (CZT) 
mit der Beschreibung der meisten Mustern und wie sie entstehen 
und dem Einführungskurs "Freude mit Zentangle" von Anya Lothrop (CZT) gings los.

Nach einigen zaghaften Versuchen mit Bleistift kaufte ich meine ersten vier  PITT Stifte. Mein erstes Zentangles mit Mustern aus meinem Kopf, welche ich schon beim Porzellan malen angewendet hatte.

Was bedeutet Zentangle?


Zentangle ist eine Zeichnungsmethode bei welcher man sich herrlich entspannen kann. 
Wie der Name schon sagt

Zen - Entspannung
Tangle - Zeichnen/Kritzeln

Erfunden wurde diese Zentangle® Zeichentechnik von Rick und Maria
 
Sodann fand ich auf der Seite von Anna Meyer sehr viele interessante Informationen über das Vorgehen, Material und eine aufschlussreiche Bücherliste.
Zwei Bücher habe ich mir besorgt. 
Das erste "Das grosse Zentangle-Buch" von Beate Winkler (CZT) 
mit der Beschreibung der  meisten Mustern und wie sie entstehen. 
Das zweite Buch "Freude mit Zentangle"  
ist ein Einführungskurs von Anya Lothrop (CZT)

Meine ersten Versuche entstanden mit Bleistift und Kugelschreiber;
aber bald schon kaufte ich mir ein Set mit 4 PITT artist pens.

Es ist passiert - der Zentangle-Virus hat mich gepackt.

Zentangle

Vor kurzem bin ich auf ZENTANGLE® gestossen
und zwar auf die beiden Muster Optical Illusion.
Ich habe dann gleich versucht, diese in Photoshop zu zeichnen.
Mir wurde jedoch sofort klar, Zentangle zeichnet man von Hand!

Meine Photoshop-Zentangle bestehen nur aus geraden Linien.

 Square

Triangle

Hier ein paar Spielereien mit Square. In Photoshop dupliziert, gespiegelt.
