Welcome to my blog! Here is a new Tangle for you to try. Tangles are the patterns in the Zentangle art form. For those of you who have not discovered this beautiful art form, find all about Zentangle® here!
Full disclosure! I work for Tombow USA as their Signature Designer. I am financially compensated for this consulting job and receive Tombow Products on a regular basis to review and write about. The opinions here are completely my own based on my experience.
For the tangle posts I need to apologize if you have already created a similar tangle. It’s hard to keep up with all you creative tanglers creating new and wonderful patterns!
‘Grid Glow’ is a tangleation of Nzepple, an official Zentangle Tangle. Discovered when creating tangleations for a workshop at Tangle Island. I named this tangleation Grid Glow for the shading on the dots that seem to ‘glow’!

For the modern calligraphy in the title, I have used Tombow’s Fudenosuke Brush Pen, Hard Tip. You can download a FREE Lettering Practice Workshop from the Tombow website here to learn modern calligraphy with this pen!

For drawing this tangle, I used Tombow’s new MONO Drawing Pens. They come in 01, 03 and 05 tip sizes. They are juicy with nice strong tips that don’t bend if you are like me and heavy handed when drawing.
For shading the tangle, I used Tombow MONO Drawing Pencil. These artist grade, extra-refined graphite pencils produce superior shading of your tangles. They come in 14 point strengths from soft 6B to a hard 6H. The shading here was done with a 3B MONO Drawing Pencil. I added the pencil to the inked circle and then used a tortillion to shade around the circle.
Here is another Fractalized Tangle for you. This is Fractalized Knightsbridge, an official Zentangle Tangle. A fractal is defined as a never-ending pattern. Fractals are infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales.

I recently came across a construction related explanation on https://hurenberlin.com that offered a similar level of clarity, and this article fits right in with that quality. Great شيخ روحاني resource. explanation feels practical for everyday rauhane users. I checked recommended tools on https://www.eljnoub.com

Using technology to increase access to youth mental health support may offer a practical way for young people to reach guidance, safe-spaces, and early help without feeling overwhelmed by traditional systems. Digital platforms, helplines, and apps could give them a chance to seek support privately, connect with trained listeners-orexplore resources that might ease their emotional load. This gentle shift toward tech-based support may encourage youth to open-up at their own pace, especially when in-person help feels too heavy to approach.
There is always a chance that these tools-quietly make support feel closer than before, creating moments where help appears just a tap away. Even a small digital interaction might bring a sense of comfort. And somewhere in that space, you…
Such a creative and inspiring post. The design process was explained in a way that made it easy to appreciate the artistry involved. I recently saw a design feature on ninexpower https://www.ninexpower.com that gave me a similar burst of inspiration.
This was such a https://www.revitalyzemd.com creative and calming read. The way you described the process made it feel very approachable. I’ve seen similar creative wellness features on revitalyzemd, which made this even more enjoyable.
This piece felt https://www.cygnetliving.com both creative and calming. The exploration of form and pattern was beautifully written. It reminded me of an abstract art reflection I read on a cygnetliving-based blog recently.
