問題詳情

四、閱讀測驗Zentangle is known as a way to create structured designs through drawing various patterns. Sometimesmistakenly called “Zendoodling” or “tangle doodling,” Zentangling is actually a formalized process that definesitself as something other than mere doodling. Rick Roberts and Mary Thomas are the originators of thetrademarked Zentangle method. Basically, it is a specific way to draw images, most often in black pen on whitepaper. Zentangle has become an international phenomenon that now has applications in stress reduction,education, therapy and even motivational training.Zentangle itself may be relatively new, but the basic principles involved are as old as the history of art. Itincludes ritual, which is a core practice in ancient and contemporary arts. It also mirrors the symbols, designs andpatterns of numerous cultures, such as Mayan, Maori, Celtic, and American Indian, from ancient through presenttimes. And like “doodling,” it is based on a human behavior in which one refrains from planning and allows linesand shapes to unintentionally emerge.There are numerous books on the formal method of Zentangle that will help you get started. These booksprovide numerous designs and show you how to create various patterns, step-by-step. Or simply search theInternet to find instructions and inspiration for designs—then make up your own once you have practiced a fewpatterns. You really only need a few materials to create your designs: a pencil used to mark out guidelines and toshade areas of designs, a black pen, and heavy white drawing paper. The traditional practice of Zentangling uses3 ½ inch square tiles made of special paper. But you can cut your own choice of paper into squares or completelybreak the rules, and tangle on whatever type of paper you want to.Why am I interested in Zentangle?

In fact, proponents of the practice note that it has multiple benefits includingcalming an anxious mind, increasing self-confidence, and cultivating moment-to-moment awareness in a similarway as mindfulness meditation.
