Zentangle art projects

Middle School students explore the mindfulness of Zentangle, the benchmarks for math, and the elements of line and texture in this Zentangle art lesson.

This project proved to be both very challenging and a lot of fun. Creating pattern isn't as easy as it looks. Zentangle patterns can be difficult to think up. We used some 4-step Zentangle pattern hand-outs to get going but most of us created our own complex patterns as well. The landscape format gave this "doodle" drawing a new layout and scratch-art and tooling foil gave the project some varied texture. Varied line thickness was also highlighted.

Zentangle Still Lifes What a successful project! We used Sharpie for our Zentangle backgrounds and chalk pastel for our still lifes. Focus was on variety of pattern as well as varied line thickness and value blending. At the beginning of the lesson, the still life image was projected on screen to allow for large classes to view it in detail. We also saved the image on our Edmodo class page for easy access anytime!
