From Reticula and Fragments to Burgundy and Gold Mandala

This on-demand video class will teach you and build your confidence to create mandalas by using the simple Reticula and Fragments concept, developed by Zentangle Inc. 
Includes a video lesson (13 videos,  total length 1h 38m) and a PDF eBook.
This class might be just the right thing for you if:
  • you have never heard about Zentangle's concept of Reticula and Fragments (R&F) but feel intrigued
  • you have heard about R&F but you are not sure how to use it to maximize its potential
  • you are familiar with R&F and very interested to learn the way to incorporate it into the mandala design.
I was introduced to Reticula and Fragments a long time ago, but honestly, I wasn't enthusiastic about it. I always thought about it in terms of grid structures and using the fragments for draw very simple repetitive patterns. It all changed once I started using it for mandala designs and I hope that this class might turn some of you to R&F lovers. 

You will get an unlimited access to video lessons so you can complete the project whenever you feel ready, take your time to finish it at your own pace and revisit it if you want. Included are 13 videos with total length of 1h 38m.
 
Please make sure to download the PDF eBook - it incudes the theoretical framework, step-by-step instructions, additional examples with comments, a register of chosen fragments etc.

Supplies

I recommend using the following supplies:
  • white square paper tile
  • graphite pencil
  • black and colored pen of choice (such as Micron 01 or PN) – I used a burgundy PN
  • Gelly Roll – metallic gold (#38802), pink (#38918) and gold red (#651) - you can use any color of your choice
  • watercolor pencil in similar color to the colored pen (I used Red Violet by Faber-Castell) and a water brush
  • white charcoal pencil
  • blending stumps
  • Mandala Builder or Markus Operandus
  • compass and ruler

If you don't have the specific supplies that I used or simply prefer different colors, please choose any colors you like or any supplies you own – just have fun!
