March 31st - DingBatz & DingSplatz at University Art

Zentangle Basics is a pre-requisite.
DingBatz & its new relative DingSplatz are the newest rage among Tanglers. In the typography world, "dingbats" are a type of scrolled printer's ornament normally added to cards and stationary. Maria has turned that little gem into a small, self-contained frame that you can fill with tangles. I was at a seminar in October 2018 when Maria, Rick, Molly and Martha rolled out the new DingSplatz, which is a loopy-loop container for you favorite tangles. We will dibble and dabble with these two methods!
