First Time Tangling
Learn the Zentangle Method with Ildica Boyd. This is an easy to learn, fun way to create structured patterns one stroke at a time. Be in the moment as you flow with your pen lines to create the different patterns (known as tangles).
Date: Tuesday 25th February 2025.
Time: 1 to 2.30pm.
Cost: $25 per person.
You'll create a couple of pieces of work and have a mini kit of gorgeous tools to go home with to explore some more.
Ildica Boyd has by her own admission a 'passion for patterns'! If not teaching or doing Zentangle, she can be found swapping her pen for a shuttle, and busy weaving on her loom, or teaching that too.
