Prerequisite: Zentangle Basics
Using 3Zs (the new triangular tiles) and your art journal, we will explore several new, open ended ways of approaching Zentangle. Reticula and fragments will allow you to play with a structure and a seed pattern. New ways of creating patterns or modifying existing patterns that do not involve creating a stepout will open additional creative doors. Tiles will be provided, but students should bring their Basics kit bag and an art journal.

Zentangle is a fun, easy-to-learn, relaxing method of creating beautiful images using repetitive patterns. No drawing experience or special skills are necessary except an open heart and the ability to hold a pen. In this class students will be introduced to the Zentangle Method of creating ink drawings on small paper tiles, including the new triangular tiles. At least four patterns different from those used in previous basics classes will be introduced. No prerequisite, all materials included.

Stroschins 3 – Jane, Lauren and Brian Stroschin
Reception: February 3, 5:30-7:00 p.m.
Jansma Gallery at NCCA-Artsplace,
13 E. Main St., Fremont.
Jane, Lauren, and Brian Stroschin are excited to present “Stroschins 3.” As Jane has known she wanted to be an artist since the age of four, she included her passion and talent for art and creativity in raising her children. The house was always filled with paints, brushes, pencils, clay, picture books, and art history books. Now that Lauren and Brian have added their own style and experiences to their art, and Jane’s direction and talent has continued to grow and evolve; the three of us are proud to exhibit our individual styles together.
Brian’s abstract compositions and characters inspire the viewer’s creative interpretations. Lauren’s photos beautifully capture her worldwide explorations and deep respect for our natural world. As an award winning photographer and painter, Jane’s paintings of abstract background and high realism subject matter will stimulate both your creativity and appreciation of the grace of nature. We hope you will enjoy this unique family’s three styles of artistic expression.
