Drawing while listening means retaining more information??

Another piece of evidence that drawing while listening can actually help some people retain more.

A zentangle student of mine, Bev, sent me this link to a CBC radio talk about doodling. Again, it provides more information on how some people can actually retain more if they put the pen to paper. The benefit of being a zentangle artist is that you have a more intentional, and satisfying result.

Thanks for passing this on Bev!

Aquafleur …. a great new tangle

The first tangle of 2014, Aquafleur is fun to work with. It was introduced in the January 2014 newsletter. I really enjoyed doing the one on the black tile. The zenstone creates such a light, misty white.  I also used a white gel pen and white charcoal pencil.
