Description:

This is a lesson in designing a Zentangle string. There is a zentangle string in everything. Its just in how you look at something. For an example of how to extract a string from a graphic or anything look at is the Turkey illustrated above. The resulting Zentangle made from it probably wont look like a turkey. The point is to extract a string from the graphic not zentangle a turkey. Take this string and tangle it on a 3.5 x3.5 inch square of card stock. Take any other image do the same. be sure to name the string you designed so we know what you started with. You will swap the 2 resulting Zentangles with one partner. link to the Turkey Zentangle String

Most Zentangle strings are random freeform abstract flowing lines on a piece of paper. This exercise take the design of a string outside that box. Have fun with it. Don't make it hard remember keep it simple is best.

Sweet! Sounds like fun. I'm in.

If I understand correctly, I'm supposed to make one zentangle with your turkey string and a second zentangle from a graphic of my own choosing??

If so, where do i find a 3.5 square image of your turkey string?

Or, if I'm wrong, what are the rules?

My original thought was to just click on the above image and copy to your desk top and free hand sketch it on the 3.5 x3.5 as it doesnt have to be exactly a reproduction of my turkey but I will up load it and post a link.
