Tangled Fashionista – Sandy Steen Bartholomew

Part coloring book, part parody of a fashion magazine, and completely fun for designers, artists, and crafters, The Tangled Fashionista is a one of a kind Zentangle book! There are some typical boots and dresses to tangle, but the author poured her imagination and humor into these designs. If your fashion sense leans towards steampunk, fairies, ghosts, and really weird hairstyles, you will have a blast! There are pages with ideas, suggestions, and partial patterns so you can actually learn something about Zentangle, too. But this is not just a Zentangle book. In fact, you can completely ignore any Zentangle tendencies, drawing and coloring to your heart’s content. Have fun! This is a collection of string shapes and designs reminiscent of paper dolls. You will love the women, shoes, tattoos, and fashions. Learn patterns, shapes, and colorful designs that will inspire and impress your inner artist! Zentangle is the easy-to-learn method of creating beautiful imagery from repetitive patterns, offering a fun, therapeutic approach to art and creativity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Author Sandy Steen Bartholomew curates this illustrated cache for those who lean towards fantasy and odd fashion senses, giving artistic inspiration to readers. Her ideas, suggestions, and partial patterns–originally created from fabric designs–offer a relaxed approach to creativity. Some pages include tangle swatches, which are unfinished tangles for borders, clothing, or hairstyles. These sometimes intricate and elaborate designs can be used as guidelines for original art. Each page offers unique designs and tips in keeping with the Tangled Fashionista intention to inspire and delight!
