In the latest episode of TanglePod – Juliette and I discuss how found poetry and Zentangle fit perfectly together.
Found Poetry has been around for a very long time, and is a great way to combine a love of words with art. Zentangle pairs really well with it, becasue the spaces on the page between the words can easily guide your pen strokes.
When I find a poem, often I need time to think about it – and using Zentangle as a process to meditate on the words popping out of the page is a perfect way to spend some time thinking. Often the words have deeper meaning and intention and it is a lovely break to just let them marinate in my thoughts while letting my pen and breath flow quietly filling the spaces between.
On my found poetry page of CharmingBlueberries I go into detail about how to create with Found Poetry.
