One of the first Zentangle patterns to catch my eye was the strircle. It’s surprisingly easy to do.
You just have to make sure that you block in the solid color on the right side of the circle, for the best effect.
The strircle pattern was created Molly Hollibaugh, CZT (Certified Zentangle Teacher)

Tangle Pattern Poke Leaf and Strircle
This is a piece of artwork I’ve been working on, it is based on an artwork in the book “The Beauty of Zentangle” although I’ve changed some of the patterns.
I feel looking at it that I need to add more shading. So I’ll carry on working on it and report back.
