I am always surprised because I cannot find patterns that are the easiest, yet... you know, Zentangle, theoretically it should be non-representative even if in the end it is, because reality is what inspires us. And Zentangle flowers are so nice!
So, I ended up trying the easiest of flowers in the smallest of tiles. Easy, or better Izy... but then saw that Musterquelle want names that are at least four letters, therefore I went for Izzy. Not really related to Ozzy leaving this strange planet, I made up the name some days before that.
By the way, a couple of days ago I watched a video about fragments. Maybe the same pattern is there but I haven't investigated fragments enough yet. I will probably soon do that!
In the meantime, I decided to get my own small fragments to try out and mix them out to see how fragments work together.
Do you have a good idea to store them? I put them together with paper clips, but it does not sound the best way to keep them safe and sound for a long time.

Here there is the same pattern and some more random stuff. This is the first drawing I did at home, after a workshop from a colleague. I know it is not so much Zentangle, but I did it before checking any video.

And here some fragments. I did not write down the codes, and some could not be from official Zentangle. I made them up a bit. I just bought Zentangle Primer 1, I will update with the fragment code if somebody asks for it!

And here I am doing small fragments, to play with them and see how they match with each other.

I have also drew some fragments that all touch the borders in similar place. I will see if I want to do for them as well a set of 4 on small cardboard tiles and play with them to see what fits! :)

My Patterns
Izzy












There is another Izzy by Cyndi Knapp. Another easy floral pattern. I will have to find a way to distinguish patterns with the same name. Probably by stating the author in the label in such cases. :)
