Create a piece of art today!
ADULTS & YOUTH 16+ (Younger Ok w/ Participating Parent)
A live, virtual online class. If greater creativity, calm, and balance are among your goals for the fall, look no further than Zentangle – a type of meditation achieved through pattern-making, created by artists Maria Thomas and Rick Roberts. Each pattern is built one line at a time, organically combining simple patterns into complex Zentangles in unplanned, unexpected ways that grow, change and unfold on the page as you enter an immersive state of flow. You will learn the fundamentals of art and basic drawing techniques including line, contour, value, texture, form, and shapes. The skills you will learn in this class set a solid foundation for other visual art mediums. Class meets once and you may repeat a session. Drawing reduces stress, improves brain function, creative thinking, and problem-solving skills. Anyone can draw and create a Zentangle!
