This is a small, bijou -sized tile. It is 2" x 2" square. I don’t have the actual Project Pack No. 1 yet, so I cut a small tile from Strathmore Black Art paper. I bought a 12"x12" pad of this paper a few years ago. I don’t think they still make it in this form, but Strathmore still makes a black, cardstock weight paper that could be used.
This little tile is the first exercise for this Project Pack. You can watch Molly Holligaugh guide you through the design here , on the Zentangle channel on YouTube.
This is a small, simple tile that uses only orbs and auras and a few straight lines to create the design. In the video, Molly used a regular graphite pencil to add the shading, but I chose to use the pastel pencils instead. In addition, I added the highlighting to the orbs, which wasn’t required by the exercise. I just like the way they look with the addition!
