There's also some beautiful examples of finished works by artists to give you inspiration.
The majority of the book is 32 line drawings of creatures and animal heads for you to implement your new talent! Kangaroo, lion, bison, stag, gorilla, racoon and so many more, all with faint grey partitions ready for the patchwork patterns you've learned.

Hello Claire, I recently purchased the above mentioned book as I've been a lover of Zentangles for quite sometime now. I haven't dared to do any of the exact book pictures as I value the book so highly. And to be honest I paid a packet for this book $35.00 aussie dollars. Yes I know I got ripped off. I will instead copy the picture onto some sort of appropriate paper and then do my magic zentangles once I'm in the mood. Sorry, but I am on a big downer at the moment. As it is christmas and since 2003 I have spent every christmas alone. So the sound of silence is deafening at the moment and in an attempt to try to change that I will do something more with my current art work. If you are interested I would love to share my drawing once it finished with you for some feed back and suggestions how to improve. Julie. [email protected] ps Merry Christmas to you and your family.
