Your Instructor: Eni Oken

I'm Eni Oken, artist since the age of 8, art instructor and teacher for over 30 years, author of hundreds of articles, tutorials, video lessons and ebooks online and books in print on various different subjects such as fantasy design, jewelry making and in recent years, Zentangle method. My true passion is exploring methods and tools on how a person can create something remarkable in art, and teaching it to others so they can grow artistically.

Materials and supplies:

• Tan Zentangle tile (or other 3.5 to 4 inch square tan paper). 

• A square piece of scrap card paper the same size as your tile. 

• A pair of small scissors. 

• Black thick inking pen (I use Tombow Mono inking pen 03 or Micron PN)

• Red inking pen (I use Micron 01)

• Gold pen (I use gold Pen-Touch or gold Gelly roll)

• Blue marker (any brand, even cheap kid's markers. Turquoise or royal, but not too dark!)

• Regular colored pencils: yellow, ochre, dark brown (burnt umber), black, red and dark blue. (I like mostly Faber Castell Polychromos, except the yellow is better in Prismacolor). 

• White Prismacolor colored pencil

• White Gel pen

• Colored pencil sharpener

• If you have it, yellow moonlight gel pen. Optional.

• Journal or practice paper

• Regular pencil
