How to create a decorative Day of the Dead craft.
Step 1: Practice, Practice, Practice those Zentangles!
Use hand out, look up designs on internet, and create your
own.
Step 2: Lightly draw or trace basic skull.
Skull does not have to go in the exact center. Try to find
and interesting place. Think about what design you want
to create. DO you want it to have a certain style…Do
you want more room for “hair” type
designs…Do you want it to go off the page…or maybe you
want it to be off center?
Step 3: Add in Zentangle patterns. Use sharpie over
patterns. Keep lines neat, crisp, & clean.
The entire page needs to be covered with some kind of
design. You may also choose to add in color with colored
pencils, ink pens, or markers. Don’t forget to sign bottom
right corner with your signature when completed.
