Thank you so much!

Thank you! In this video I think I used watercolour pencils from Zentangle’s project packs and maybe some other loose pencils I had lying around but mostly I use Albrecht Durer watercolour pencils by Faber Castell. The paintbrush was a fairly inexpensive synthetic brush.

Thank you so much! 💕

It’s just one technique. I try to show people a variety of mediums throughout my videos. Any different mediums can be substituted in most of my videos. You could absolutely use paint instead.

I never thought about it. This type of Pencil is common in my home.

Thank you so much! 💕

Thank you so much!💕

Thank you Sandy. I found it hard to keep up with making videos when my elderly parents moved in with me. They both have serious health problems… cancer and heart disease amongst their ailments. I’ve been doing some courses on children’s book illustration, working at my own pace when I get the time. If my situation changes, I will make more videos but unfortunately, I can’t predict when that might happen.

@@TracyAnneWilkinson Thank you for answering… i felt that something was taking you away from your videos - it is hard when parents need more attention; i hope you are at least finding time to tangle for your own pleasure once in awhile. Your viewers will pop back in when/if you resume as you have been a good resource. I know (now 81) I have less energy for teaching (CZT 33) although the demand is there. Blessings surround you.

A common problem when using white gel pens is pressing too hard. I must admit I did this when first using them. A very light touch allows the ink to flow. Get the ink flowing on a scrap piece of paper before using on your tile. Use a white charcoal pencil or a white chalky pastel pencil for doing a test run before committing to a gel pen. These pencils can be erased once the ink in your pen dries.

@@TracyAnneWilkinson Thank you a lot, Tracy. I nearly don't touch the paper, because I know that it is bad to press too much. And I always try to make a few lines on a tissue or piece of paper. I think I have the half of the pen gel on a tissue instead of my picture. 🙄Bud sadly it doesn't help really. May be I have only dry pens? 😄 I will try the white coal pencil for the test-drawing - thank you. 💛💚💙

Thank you!

Thank you! Have fun!💕

You’re welcome 😊

I’m not making more videos at the moment but you might find this video on shading with watercolour pencils helpful: ua-cam.com/users/playlistlist=PLfqMwhMpbwTJEA1RkT6xYmVDevosZLhPY If you go to my channel page and look at the playlists, I also have a group of videos in which I use watercolour pencils. Here is another link to a video which shows some different ways of using watercolour pencils: ua-cam.com/video/OCh56Gl0cmc/v-deo.html

Thank you! You too!

@@TracyAnneWilkinson I think I'm addicted to your work. I'm going to watch one more before bed time. Hope you are doing well. Thanks again for the education.

@@anitamitchell3452 thank you so much. I am well thank you.

Thank you so much 😊

I only use a mat fixative when I use a charcoal pencil or any other chalky mediums like pastels or pastel pencils.

Thank you! 💕

You are so welcome

I’m not sure which pen you are talking about but there is a full list of pens in the description below the video. if you click on the word… more on the description it will expand so that you see the full list of materials used in the video.

You’re welcome 😊

Thank you!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you so much! 🙂

You took the words out of my mouth. Just beautiful Tracy. Looks like you had a good time. Wouldn't that pattern look great around a door jam? Super size it! Have a great day!

I use white gel pens. I buy them from a local office supplies store or online through Amazon.

you can use any pen but if you ever want to put watercolours over the top of your drawing make sure you use permanent ink so that it doesn’t smudge. if you are drawing over the top of dry watercolour then it won’t matter.

Thank you very much.

Shading helps give your work a more 3 dimensional effect. On the video I start shading at 20:15 using a pencil. You can then blend this to soften the effect. I use a blending stump which can also be called a tortillion. It is made from tightly rolled paper. I buy mine from art/craft shops. You can blend using your finger but this way can be a bit messy.

Thanks for watching

I would recommend some sort of fixative. I use: Micador for Artists - Fixative workable Matt - clear, permanent protection for pastel, charcoal, chalk and pencil work.

thank you Gayle!

Thank you so much 😀

Thanks so much 😊

Thank you so much!

thank you!

Thank you!

sorry, I don’t do much tangling these days. The freight from the US is very expensive. There is a lady who lives in Cairns who does sell Zentangle supplies. her name is Yvonne Rein and she has a Facebook group called Yintangles. it’s a great group and they have a zoom meeting once a month. if you join this group, you will find all the information you need about buying Zentangle materials here in Australia.

Thank you! 😊

Thank you! 💕

You’re welcome 😊

Glad to hear that

Glad you enjoyed it

You are so welcome!

Thank you Janet, I appreciate that. I am well and working on some children’s picture book illustrations at the moment, so I’ve been pretty busy.
