​
Did you do it? GREAT! I knew you could! Those are ALL of the elemental strokes used in creating Tangles. Now...stop doubting yourself, give yourself a point and go to question #2.
​
​
2. Are you artistic?

​
​

And...Zentangle is portable! You can do it anywhere! Move along to question #4. Move along...move along...
