Hello Rick and Maria,

Whether you are having summer heat or winter cold, here are some end of July treats for you to enjoy.

See what you can do with your

Zentangle Tile Tome

We are about to start our 21st Zentangle Project Pack! That means we have 20 Project Pack's worth of tiles in boxes here at Zentangle HQ.

Earlier this week, Jean, a long time member of the Zentangle team, went through them and mounted them in our Zentangle Tile Tome. What a joy to see them displayed . . . thank you, Jean!

Join Molly and Rick as they show you how Molly and Jean put the Zentangle Tile Tome to good use!

Zentangle Tile Tome

The Zentangle Tile Tome, a 13" x 9.5" (33cm x 24cm) tile album, is filled with 15 kraft color leaves and 15 black color leaves. Fill the pages of this album with Zentangle tiles or other Zentangle art using photo corners or the adhesive of your choice. The classic 3-ring binder construction allows you to add or remove pages as you like. You will find the kraft paper, hardcover surface with red Zentangle logo detail is perfect for tangling. Enjoy making this book truly custom by covering the surface with your own tangled artwork.

Celebrating 100,000 YouTube Subscribers

Thank You! for supporting us over these many years.

We are thrilled to share with you that we have hit the monumental milestone of 100,000 subscribers on our YouTube channel.

Rick recently moved our studio from the basement to the second floor of our home. It's now easier for us and guests to record instead of having to traipse through the basement of an old house.

We are ever so grateful to all of you for watching, tangling along with us, and subscribing.

Zentangle Project Pack No. 21

Videos Releasing Soon!

We are eagerly awaiting the start of our Project Pack No. 21 video series.

Behind the scenes work on our Project Packs are always exciting and inspiring. The hardest part is waiting for the release and this one is no different. We cannot wait to see what tanglers across the globe will do with this very magical theme!

“Don’t wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul.”

– Luther Burbank

Creativity is a powerful tool. By tapping into your inner artist, you build confidence, strength, and potential to see your world differently than you did before. You might realize that you are the painter of your own canvas, you are the designer of your life’s work, and you are the gardener in your tangled garden. In this Project Pack, we will continue our path of learning about Zentomology system and the specific tangle categories we call tangle geneses.

This series will shed light on the tangle genus of organic tangles, specifically ones of botanical nature. As tanglers, we will come together and plant some seeds. We will nurture them and watch them grow. And, in true Zentangle tradition, we will share these ideas and techniques with you in fun and unexpected ways.

Join us as we gather specimens from our tangled gardens and chronicle them in creative ways using the specially curated materials in Zentangle Project Pack No. 21.

Zentangle Project Pack No. 21 videos will be released every other day beginning August 4, 2023 via our newsletter, website and YouTube channel.

Remember, part of the fun of the Zentangle Project Pack Series is the element of surprise. Please refrain from sharing or posting photos of the contents prior to the release of the videos. Thank you!

Become a Certified Zentangle Teacher

We invite Zentangle enthusiasts from near and far to join us online for CZT training seminar. This enriching three-day Zentangle teacher certification program will be taught by the founders of the Zentangle Method, Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas, along with daughters Molly Hollibaugh and Martha Huggins. This seminar is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the philosophies behind the Zentangle Method of drawing. You will finish with all the knowledge you need to teach the Zentangle Method and the tools needed to convey the full Zentangle experience to your students. As a CZT, you will enjoy continued support and inspiration from Zentangle Inc. and from our world-wide CZT network.

Here is what CZTs who have attended online have to say about their experience...

'WOW! what a seminar. I was quite concerned that doing training on line would not be inspiring or life changing (as in person classes can be). I was so wrong. I know that I am not alone in having tears at the end…That so many people, from so many parts of the world were seeing the same screen as myself was spiritual. Many of these people were from countries in much more turmoil than our own and they came in peace and community. The world can become a better place one stroke at a time. We just need to remember the Zentangle Method. no judgement, no up or down. no mistakes. Give love, hope, gratitude, and encouragement"

"I am so Happy! Thank you for bringing this to me in my home. Your family and staff has made this a beautiful experience for me!!!"

"I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for completely changing my life by not only offering the gift of Zentangle, but giving me the chance to become a CZT and offering CZT Seminar virtually!"
