Doodles & Zentangles Tutorial

Zentangles are some of the coolest things around, I think.  I'm not Zen enough to do them, it seems, because when I start one, they always end up being just scribbles.  ::sighs::  I suspect that the way to get good at Zentangles is practice.  Ugh.  My Practice Patience life-lesson is rearing it's head again.

Regardless, there's some people out in the world (like my nephew and my Aunt Cyd), who just naturally are Zentanglists.  They both did those types of doodles long before "Zentangle" was even thought of.  However, for those of us (me), who just can't seem to find the Zen to get it done, I've found several tutorials for us.  This one shows an interesting series of tangles *and* it shows how to do the shadows so the tangle looks a little more 3D.
