I am a Certified Zentangle Teacher, and love shading tangle patterns with the #2 HB pencil that is included in Zentangle® supply kits. The graphite takes well to the 140 lb watercolor paper used for the tiles, and then spreads beautifully for blending and shading with a tortillion or blending stump. I particularly like the beautiful fine point it takes with a hand sharpener. I can lay graphite down close to a line without leaving an open area next to the line or putting graphite on the other side of the line. Comments are closed.
