Sharon Briss: Going Rogue with Zentangle

I adore this book border image from the Relish Reading plate and I wanted to make a hanging for my room using it and one of favorite quotes from Voltaire.


My problem was that I loved the simple lines of the image and didn't want to drown them out with too much color. It occurred to me that I could use Zentangle patterns to add some fun and interest and still show off my lovely image at the same time!

Here is the result:


Stamps: book border and sentiment from Relish Reading plate Zentangle patterns: Up and Down, Hibred, DL Sunray, Japonica, Knightsbridge, Yincut and Fescu and Poke Root.

There are many great Zentangle resources online and the one I particularly like is tanglepatterns.com.
