Is it morning?

A Fullness in Brevity - Adam Byatt 
May have asked before but forgotten … what’s a zentangle?
Zentangle is a mix of erasure/blackout poetry, and art. Using an existing piece of text (in my series, I’ve been using “Through A Glass Darkly” by Jostein Gaarder) I select words from the page, blackout what I don’t want and illustrate the background.
A quick google search will show you the breadth and depth of work that people create. It’s fascinating.
Zentangle is more about abstract patterns or doodles than a specific illustration but it’s up to the author/artist to create as they see fit for their purpose.
Thanks for the explanation … the technique is really effective in your posts!
