I have recently gotten into Zendoodle (also called Zentangle). I am attaching a picture of the first Zendoodle I drew. My friend suggested I do it as a way to distress and relax, and I'm hooked! My Zendoodles are pretty basic, but I have seen some that are incredibly intricate and beautiful. Anyone here Zendoodle?

I've never heard of Zendoodle but it sure looks like more of a Zentangle! You must be pretty artistic to be so good at it, MyLordsLady. Where did you find out about this? I would attempt to do it but I'm all thumbs. Do you need a great deal of manual dexterity in order to perform this?

I've heard that this can be very relaxing for some people, but I don't think it would work for me. Artistic projects tend to stress me out more than anything else. Your doodle is very impressive, MyLordsLady!

Thanks all! There are so many sites that explain step-by-step how to make the different patterns. If you go on Pintrest and type in zendoodle or zentangle, hundreds of tutorials come up. It's not hard, and I forgive myself if it's not perfect. It is meant to relax me, and it truly does!

This sounds like something that I would enjoy. I think it's super fun and extremely relaxing to draw like that. I definitely want to find out more about this.
