Zentangling on stencils


I love the whole zentangle thing and though I can't aspire to the artistry of many of its practitioners I'm always amazed by how impressive even basic patterns can look.  In these two samples I used a stencil as my starting point, drew round the outlines and then filled in the shapes with patterns.  The top stencil was a basic grid, the bottom one is a stencil by Julie Fei-Fan Balzer and I did do it straight but couldn't manage to hold the sketchbook straight in the scanner!
