Ink & pattern studio

Meditative lines,
restless patterns.

Burning Rascal is a studio practice built from zentangle discipline, loose doodle instinct, and abstract composition — original ink pieces for collectors, fellow tanglers, and anyone drawn to repeating line.

About the studio

Burning Rascal began as margin scribbles — the kind that fill the edge of a notebook while the mind wanders. Over time, those scribbles became a discipline: tangle strings, repeating motifs, and abstract compositions built one deliberate stroke at a time.

Every piece starts on paper with pen and ink, no pencil sketch, no undo. The zentangle method keeps the hand honest; the doodle instinct keeps it loose; the abstract work is where the two meet — structure and improvisation on the same page.

This is a sample collection built to show the shape of the practice. Replace the artist statement, gallery pieces, and photos here with your own as the archive grows.

How a piece comes together

A short pattern library and process note — from first spark to finished tangle. Useful reading for anyone building their own practice.

01

Spark

A mood, a word, or a stray doodle from the margins sets the starting point — no fixed plan yet.

02

The string

A loose guiding line divides the page into sections — the "string" that every tangle pattern will live inside.

03

Tangle it

Each section fills with a repeating pattern — curls, crosshatch, dots, or scallops — one deliberate stroke at a time.

04

Shade & finish

Shading adds depth to the linework, then the piece is signed, scanned, and added to the collection.
