DaVinci Zendala

Last November 2021 I participated in Zentangle's ZenAgain conference for CZTs, which helps teachers find inspiration for new classes. My all time favorite class was the one related to Leonardo DaVinci’s sketch books, and I was just having a ton of fun with the “inventions” the Zentangle family came up with to fill up the tan opus tile.

Here’s the page I created during that class.

For several weeks I imagined a Zendala made with the different elements created in that class, and this is the first result. There were many other tests, some I liked more than others. I'll post them here soon.

You can see the elements combined there:

Here's another shot:

And here again, you can see a glimpse of another piece inspired by DaVinci’s sketcbooks (I’ll post that more on that later).

A live class on this piece is coming this Thursday, March 3, 2022 for members of my Art Club.
