I followed THIS "Zentangle Zenchronicity 127" video by Eva Wu. You can see Eva's finished tile HERE on Instagram. The featured tangles are "Battuta" by Zen Linea (Anica Gabrovec CZT) and "Mooka" by Zentangle.

Today's Tangle - Art Deco Arch Forest
Today's tangle is Tomàs Padrós CZT's version of a tangle called "CRA CRA" which is by Sue Jacobs CZT. His step-out is posted HERE on Instagram. Anica Gabrovec CZT came up with an alternative method for drawing his pattern which is posted HERE on Instagram. The tile that I drew by following her method is posted below. As you can see, my tile above didn't turn out much like Tomàs's or Anica's.

Video Tutorial - Tile on Tile 8 Misty
Once again, I followed THIS "Tile on Tile 8 Misty" tutorial by Sandhya Manne but this time I used some different tangles and fragments. I also added a touch of pale blue colored pencil. The featured tangles and fragments on this tile are "Fragment G16", "Fragment L16" "Printemps", "Tipple" and "Well" by Zentangle. It also features "Kyoto" by Elaine Benfatto and "Misty" by Karima Ritter CZT.

Video Tutorial - Pattern Art Videos 53-56
I followed Hong-Unni's tutorial which is posted on her Pattern Art YouTube channel. This tutorial spans four videos which you can watch here:
VIDEO 53
VIDEO 54
VIDEO 55
VIDEO 56
I tweaked the design a bit on my tile. The tangles that I used are "Flux", "Hollis", "Mooka" and "Tipple" by Zentangle. I also used "Icantoo" by Hanny Nura (RIP).
Below is a string template like the one that she used on her tile. Click HERE to download a PDF file that can be printed at the actual size of a Zendala tile. What I did was print out the template and trace the lines with a soft dark graphite pencil. I placed my round tile face down onto the template and carefully flipped it over. I then used a dull knife to rub the graphite design onto my tile.
