After my book released and my two art shows were completed, I took a break. I had "drawers block." My imagination was dormant. Instead, I started reading and reading and reading. I guess I was making up for all the years I never cracked a book. One day I forced myself to draw something. So I drew a green bean. It was pathetic, but at least I had a pen in my hand again. I drew the big mushroom in this piece a few weeks ago and then walked away from it. This weekend I picked it back up and finished it.
Zentangle... an easy to learn and relaxing method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns created by Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts. They believe that life is an art form and that Zentangle is a perfect metaphor for deliberate artistry in life. To learn more about the process, please visit their beautiful web site at www.zentangle.com.

My Workshops...I wish my day job allowed me time to hold regular workshops. But I do have time on weekends to meet you for a one-on-one session at a coffee shop downtown Los Angeles. Contact me at pennyraile (at) gmail (dot) com.
