Studio Series Artist's Tiles: White (75 pack)

I started taking Zentangle classes a few years ago. In the class I was provided with official 100% cotton Zentangle tiles which were amazing to tangle on. However, when I started looking at purchasing supplies to use at home, I realized that I just couldn't afford to use the premium tiles. I found these highly rated tiles on Amazon and am here to agree that they are perfect for everyday use, especially when you take into account the price. I have used these tiles with a variety of media and they have done well with most. They are great with pencil and ink, specifically Pigma Micron pens, Sakura 30062 6-Piece Pigma Micron Ink Pen Set, Black . The worst medium I used was watercolor. The paper did soak up the paint okay but tended to warp quickly. The shape of the tiles is interesting with cut corners that aren't rounded. At first I wasn't sure I liked the corners but over time they have grown on me and I like them a good bit more than 90 degree corners although I still would prefer them to be rounded. The size is perfect for my purpose, 3.5" square. And the grain is rough enough that the media holds well but not so much that it is apparent when looking at the final product. I enjoy using these tiles to tangle on and they allow me to be able to afford to tangle whenever I want as opposed to being limited by costly supplies. I will likely still use the cotton tiles when I want to create a piece of art to hang on the wall or give as a gift but for my end of the day relaxation art, I will continue using these on a weekly if not daily basis.

Great for drawing.

Perfect, sturdy, and good white squares to take with me when I travel. I learned about Zentangles a few weeks ago and took my first samples . . . and a stack of these blank squares with me to a family party and they were an instant hit, especially with adults and young teens! I like the quality for tangles better than my sketchpads as they have a smoother finish. The price is perfect! Excited to see what more Peter Pauper Press paper company offers.

Good quality especially for the price, though the cuts on the corners were incomplete on quite a few and there was some splitting and flaking. If you are a professional you might care about this. I’m using for Zentangle ink drawing. These are a little lighter weight than the official tiles but still resist bleed trough and stand up to micron ink pens even when blacking larger shapes. Smooth texture does lend itself to very even graphite shading. I personally was looking for tiles with a little more warmth and texture. These are very smooth and very bright white. If that’s what you need, these are what you want. I will probably use these mostly for practice and experiments. I have other (far more expensive) tiles that I will use for things I intend to gift or display (though you never know until a thing is done which it will be!). But if your work has colors this will set them all off nicely.

Exactly what was described in the description! I'm very pleased with these tiles!

Love these tiles for casual tangling! They aren’t as fancy as the tiles you get from Zentangle HQ, but they really hold up well to the ink! I use these both for my own practice and when teaching beginners. 😊

I'm working on spending less time on screens and these have been a great help. I tuck a few of these plus a pen in my bag and have all I need to do a quick drawing when I'm waiting somewhere.

Nice paper for all sorts of media. I use them for sketching and with alcohol markers most of the time but these tiles are also good with colored pencils, aquarelles, etc. My favorite size, too!

Ich nutze diese Tiles, um das Tanglen zu üben. Diese sind wesentlich günstiger als die Original Tiles von Zentangle. Die sind natürlich sehr weiß, nicht so "dunkelweiß" wie die Originale, aber die Papierqualität ist topp! Und es drückt auch nichts durch. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Ottima qualità!! Mi trovo molto bene con questo tipo di carta, l'ho provata con acrilici, acquerelli, inchiostro, matite colorate e copic markers. Per me poi questa è la dimensione perfetta visto che mi piace lavorare su disegni piccoli.

Perfect for entangle work. Good size. Good quality paper.

Great tiles, good quality card.

This is really nice! Love the thickness. The package was delivered in a good condition. The cards were also packed nicely ensuring there are no folds and there was no delay in delivery. And because of the thickness, I have been able to try several mediums like ink, watercolour and even acrylics.
