About Me

My photo
I have always had a love of art and all things creative. It all started sitting at my Mom's elbow, watching and following along as she took an at home art course. I was hooked! I majored in art in high school and for the most part am self taught. I came across my newest passion, Zentangle, about 5 years ago. This wonderful art form grabbed me and will not let go and I can honestly say it never will. My goal is to become a CZT, Certified Zentangle Teacher, and share this love with everyone. I currently work two jobs, one at a local florist and the other, a paint your own pottery studio. Both jobs allow the creative monkey on my back to run amuck and boy does she have a ball! I live in a small village in Ohio with Doug, my very understanding, very handsome husband of 30 years, and our two, four-legged little hairy kids, Bear and Molly. As for the name Tangledbirdie...my sister gave me the nickname Birdie some years back. The tangled part came in when I discovered Zentangle. There you have it!

Back!!!

Been an interesting couple of months. Got away from the blog. Health adventures took over. I finally realized one dream and made it to Rhode Island to get certified to teach Zentangle and I couldn't be happier. I didn't know at the time I went with pneumonia! Thought it was a really bad cold. When I came back I was put in the hospital 3 day later and spent a week in there and then a month at home with nurse visits for IV's and breathing treatments. But, I am thankful to say I am much better and ready to teach!
I have 3 classes scheduled already and I am so excited to share this wonderful artform with whoever I can!

Christmas was wonderful! My parents came up from South Carolina and split the visit between my sister and I. Had Christmas at my sister's new house, decorated so festive and gorgeous. My neice made it in and we missed my nephew who had to work Christmas, but he has lots of goodies coming his way! Just spending time with the family together is all the gifts I need. Nothing is more important than that!

Hoping you all have a blessed New Year!

Happy Tangling!!!
