behind the times, Inktober 2026, Zentangle

how to be behind the times... look around blogger years ago and you'll see a whole load of people were doing this then, I  just found it and started learning ''Tangling'' from a magazine bought to pass the time flying to Canada. the magazine was purchased from ebay with everything needed . Its from a method of teaching therapy from Zentangle , which is  a copy-righted name and they have 'Certified Zentangle Teachers' CZT's, all over the world. 
Inktober is a month of 'prompts; and Stephanie Jennifer, a CZT,  makes a list of Zentangle patterns for each day , you can follow along or do your own thing.   I followed along on FB and Youtube. 
also in October was a 'Tangle Together' summit where you could watch over twenty classes to learn methods and styles, its amazing what they can teach in a small amount of time... my efforts amazed me! 
it needs learned, for me, how to put together patterns and colours to make a whole. 
these are patterns someone has thought of and then dissected into a teaching project for others to follow. which is quite a task. 
some of the drawings aren't completed yet, I'll get back to them at some point
some complicated
some coloured

 some taking their own path from the pen, this was intended to be on a straightish path, off on a journey round the page it went. .... 

life is like that too sometimes.
