I think I've found my own version of Zentangle -- a creative process that puts me into a meditative state of mind. It started with the backgrounds I made for my "Psychedelic Dancers" series. I realized I didn't have to start with a collage -- I could make an entire drawing with colored pencils.
I made a list of all the "hippie talk" 70s slang I could think of and then started drawing. Choosing the color combinations was part of the fun (also an excuse to buy more Prismacolor pencils!)
I opened an online store on Threadless, where these designs and others can be printed on bags, shirts and other items. Before I advertise it more widely, I need to order some stuff myself, to see how well they are made. Stay tuned...
