Watch this for instructions about the Zentangle Lesson 2
Task
Task
You task is to create your own zentangle that you make up yourself. It should be complex and highly detailed. You can use a 'tile' (square) shape like you did in lesson 1 or you can make a different shape. From a graphic design perspective, the shape of the graphics should match the media that you want to decorate with it. So, for example if your zentangle graphic is intended to decorate a skateboard, I would expect it to be long and thin.
Note about handing in your work:
Note about handing in your work:
You are not expected to submit this straight away. We will work on it over two weeks.
You will hand your work in on google classroom on the assignment called 'My Zentangle'. If you would like to hand in a time-lapse alongside your picture of your finished zentangle then you can.
Below are some examples. Notice the level of detail.

- Decide on the shape or theme
The above example is based on a Lego theme.
You can also just use random shapes and patterns with no specific theme.
2. Mark out initial shapes and lines

This is an underwater theme. Start with very basic shapes or areas to divide up your Zentangle.
3. Fill the shapes with patterns and texture

The more pattern, texture, and shading you add, the more effective your Zentangle will look.
Tip
Tip
Shading in areas to look like shadows looks very effective like in the example here.

For this Zentangle you should use plain white paper as the high contrast of black on white is what makes Zentangle graphics effective.
When designing you should always present work to a high standard.

Procreate is a drawing app that you should be familiar with from school. There are other drawing apps that you could use but Procreate will automatically record a lime lapse for you.
