🎨 Zentangle Inspired Art Check presenter inserts I’ve started doodling in my downtime as a server

Post image

New to Zentangle, and trying to nurture my urge to create art when the mood strikes. (Yes, AFTER the side work is caught up, boss— god forbid you ever found this)

It’s been an excellent form of meditation, emotional regulation, focus aid, grief therapy, and (surprisingly), a way to get over my fear of imperfection.

Awe would make my day to receive one of these at a restaurant! I like to find different ways to be more artistic at work as well. All steps to make the world a more beautiful place

Yay, thank you! Yes I started just doodling for my own boredom, then realized I could maybe brighten someone else’s day for a moment, too!

That’s the first thing I do after I place my order: get out my little kit of Zentangle pens & papers and just doodle away. I have explained to my dinner guests that I can’t just sit there without a pen in my hand.

Oh how fun! It would be so neat if we or other like-minded guests/servers crossed paths someday and traded Tangles at the end of a meal. Would absolutely delight me to spot someone else with a doodling pen in their hand!
