review 1: There were only 12 tutorials on different zentangles, and they weren't necessarily the complicated ones I was hoping for help in figuring out. But, the instructions and graphics were clear; I liked the use of text to explain each step so that the author did not assume you can figure out what was drawn in next. There are many examples in color and black/white; so, if you're looking for inspiration in layout and design (and not a tutorial), then the book is helpful. There are also interesting suggestions of how to apply zentangle to other projects, such as greeting cards, scrapbooks, or even digital printouts. Essentially, if Pinterest does not give you enough inspiration, then this book will fill in the gaps with the author's personal insights and experiences, along with sa... moremples from several artists.
review 2: I found the subtitle a little misleading, - at least the "prompts" part. I'm not sure what was meant by that, I don't really consider there are prompts, exactly, here. However, I did learn from - and enjoy - this book - primarily as a gallery. It's fun to see finished products that aren't part of instruction. There are 12 tangles that are showcased, including 8 by the author and her friends. Half the book is about adding color to your tangles, and her take is interesting. I wouldn't consider this a beginning book, but one in which you can enjoy the art and the artist's thoughts. less
