ORNATE SQUARE

I’m excited to introduce Ornate Square, a 31-day creative exploration inspired by the elegance, history, and timeless charm of square-based designs. This series brings together three rich influences: the beautifully carved squares found on ancient Hindu temple pillars, the intricate geometry of Moroccan tiles, and your request to dive into the refined details of the Renaissance style. Together, they form a captivating blend of culture, pattern, and artistry—expressed through the Zentangle method.

Each day, you’ll work on a small square project that highlights ornamental linework, rhythmic patterns, and decorative flourishes. We’ll explore balance, symmetry, and depth through a variety of tangles and shading techniques that elevate even the simplest strokes into detailed, ornate designs.

Through this 31-day journey, you’ll experience:

🖊️ Rich pattern play inspired by global art traditions
🎨 Creative exploration through decorative squares
🌿 Daily moments of calm and mindful focus
✨ A growing confidence in your artistic expression

Whether you’re new to Zentangle or looking to expand your creative vocabulary, Ornate Square offers a beautiful way to stretch your imagination, slow down, and enjoy the meditative pleasure of detailed linework.
