Zentangle

Well it turns out the doodling that I used to do when I was a late teen actually has a name...'Zentangle'. I never knew until yesterday when a friend posted a link about it...which of course inspired me to get busy with pen on paper for the rest of the afternoon! The first time I've done one of these in over 20 years! Made me feel like I was a teenager again! Also made me go quite cross-eyed trying to focus on the designs I was doing!! lol
Anyway, here it is...my first 'Zentangle' since I was a kid..and I've already got the next one started.
They look quite effective don't they.
