Zentangle® in Grand Rapids, Nov. 19 and Dec. 3.

Each class be aimed at students who have had at least two Zentangle classes, but may be open to others (with permission).

I call them Master Classes for two reasons.  I would like the students to have a bit of experience with the Zentangle Method and to feel like an old master after taking one or both classes.

Master Class A 

Rick and Maria introduced some exciting new ways of thinking about tangling in their new book, Primer vol. 1, Reticula and Fragments.   I have been playing with these for several months and want to pass this on to you so you can take your tangling to a new creative level. My background in mathematics teaching should help me set tasks for you to explore these concepts which have structure, symmetry, and integration at their core.    No mathematical experience is necessary.   

Master Class B

I will be attending ZenAgain, a workshop with Rick and Maria to for Certified Zentangle Teachers, Nov. 13-16.  They have promised us some surprises.   Our second workshop will focus on the new experiences I gather there and also explore Reticula and Fragments.

One can register for both or either of the workshops.  The first is not pre-requisite to the second.  Both require pre-registration.

Registration is required with deadlines, Nov. 12 for class A and Nov. 26 for class B.  There is a $5 discount for registering for both by Nov. 19.

See detailed post below.
