I've been bitten by a bug. A not-so-new art form that I have recently re-discovered. It's a form of doodle art and it's called Zentangle or Zendoodle.
I remember doodling like this years and years ago in school. It's fancy scribbling. And, if memory serves me correctly, it often involved doodling the name of my most recent heartthrob entwined with hearts and flowers. It almost always accompanied daydreaming.
I was reacquainted with it on How to Zentangle; I've only completed two of them but I'm already hooked! There's another Squidoo page that's similar - it's Doodle Art. Both have interesting YouTube video tutorials and links to other related pages. The beauty of this is that anyone can do it. Doesn't matter if you can't draw a straight line. In fact, there are very few straight lines involved.
I've got a couple of very artistic grandchildren who will gobble this stuff up. I can hardly wait to introduce them to this doodling adventure. They'll think I'm a genius!

Totally cool! But I can't get any of your links to work.
You are right, Pam, those links aren't working - rats! I'm off to fix them...
Can't wait for the PA photos but the doodle art looks interesting.
I googled Zentangle and a bunch of sites came up. I watched one on how to get started. It's so easy!
Yours turned out beautifully. I'm amazed at the professional results.
I'll be giving this a try and pass it along to my grandkids.
Thanks a bunch!
Passed your tip on to a friend to share with her granddaughter. Bookmarked site for me later, getting over an ah choo cold now.
Glad you all like the doodle art! What I love is that anyone can do it...no matter how old. Great brain exercise and my brain needs all the exercise it can get!
Kittie, hope you're feeling better.
