Are you ready to let your tangles take flight?
A Zentangle® Renaissance Journey of Light, Wings, and Wonder
GOLD BUTTERFLY invites you into a luminous, transformative space in your Zentangle® journey — where graceful structure meets metallic shimmer, and every stroke becomes a wing unfolding in quiet motion.
Designed for experienced tanglers, this Renaissance project explores the delicate power of transformation through intricate patterns, glowing accents, and the warm depth of a tan tile.
This is not just drawing.
It’s a gentle evolution — from dot to wing, from tangle to flight.
Once you master this composition, your creativity can spread its wings.
Recreate it on black or gray tiles… switch to copper or silver… explore pastels… expand into a larger artwork.
The butterfly becomes a doorway — your imagination does the rest.
Have you ever wished your tangles felt more expressive… more dimensional… more alive? This workshop guides you into that experience.
You’ll learn how to:
Transform simple strokes into a breathtaking butterfly form
Use metallic gold to create shimmer, contrast, and elegance
Layer colors and values to make your tile glow
Work with Renaissance surfaces for richness and depth
Slow down, tune in, and let beauty emerge organically
GOLD BUTTERFLY offers a space where technique meets transcendence — where you’ll feel the calm of the pen and the thrill of watching your art truly come alive.
This immersive workshop gently challenges and expands your Zentangle skills as you explore:
Building a strong butterfly silhouette that feels flowing, centered, and graceful.
Using white, brown, and black pens to create drama, softness, and atmospheric depth.
Applying metallics and rich colors with intention to create warmth, glow, and quiet brilliance.
Adding delicate embellishments and finishing touches that transform your tile into a story.
Finding peace in slow layering, gentle strokes, and the unfolding of form and light.
By the end of this project, you will complete:
✨ A luminous Renaissance butterfly—glowing with gold accents, layered shading, and jewel-toned richness
✨ A composition full of movement and meaning, where tangles evolve into wings
✨ A finished tile that feels like a visual story—alive with contrast, depth, and transformation
✨ A piece uniquely yours, shaped by your choices, colors, and quiet creative rhythm
This is a tile you’ll want to frame, gift, or revisit again and again.

Namaste,
I’m Sandhya Manne… and I absolutely love to tangle!
As India’s first Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT #7) and a full-time artist, I’ve been joyfully immersed in this meditative art form for over a decade.
From cozy studios by the Bay of Bengal to buzzing online classrooms across the world, I’ve had the privilege of teaching thousands of enthusiastic students the magic of Zentangle. My journey has taken me into boardrooms too—sharing mindful creativity with teams at Texas Instruments, Wipro, Danfoss, Target, Marico, Kotak Mahindra, Asian Paints, and many more.
Teaching isn’t just something I do—it’s what lights me up. I’m obsessed with helping people discover their own creative rhythm, one stroke at a time. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a returning tangler ready to grow your skills, you’re exactly where you need to be.
So… are you excited? 😆 Because I can’t wait to welcome you in and guide you through this beautiful, relaxing, skill-building, creative Zen time that Zentangle brings into your life.
Let’s tangle together! ✨
The butterfly becomes a doorway — your imagination does the rest.
