What you'll do

If you love blue and white china then you will love this online class! Using Zentangle patterns we will pay tribute to the many different kinds of blue and white ceramics throughout history and create two separate pieces with ink and paper.

The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn fun and relaxing way to create beautiful images by drawing structured, repeated patterns. It increases focus and creativity and provides artistic satisfaction along with an increased sense of personal wellbeing.

Some benefits and uses include relaxation, simple and quick access to mindfulness, and it has been shown to help with insomnia, chronic pain, anxiety, self-esteem, panic attacks and improves fine motor skills.

Zentangle is also a fantastic stress reliever which makes it a unique option for virtual team building activities. Create beautiful art, one pen stroke at a time!

I am a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT). I have been tangling for about 8 years and teaching for over 5 years. Zentangle is an easy-to-learn, fun and relaxing way to create beautiful images by drawing repeated structured patterns. No artistic ability is required. If you can hold a pen and write your name you are half way there. There are no mistakes in Zentangle, so you can’t get it wrong. Zentangle increases focus and creativity as well as providing simple and quick access to mindfulness. I love sharing my passion for Zentangle. I love both for the beauty of the artwork itself and the added benefits of relaxation, reducing anxiety, helping with insomnia, helping manage chronic pain, ...... the list goes on!

Nikki was great at breaking everything down step by step. I was happy with what I was able to produce by the end of the class, especially with no real experience!

Intimate, personal class. Clear and helpful information and extremely personable teacher. Outcome not perfect but so much helpful advice for improving and accepting the result. Will certainly do another class.

Another brilliant and unique class, this time we did china blue, it was great to use a different colour & shape to the usual. It was a bit harder than some of the others but it was great to be challenged.

Jessica Douglass • Sep 2021

Always such a great time with Niki. I loved the blue element of this class. Turned out really well!

Thanks Niki for a lovely class. The materials supplied and instructions were excellent. The pictures look complicated but were easily achievable with Niki's clear step by step instructions.
