I’m Sarah Uram and I’m an artist and a Certified Zentangle Teacher trained by the founders of Zentangle®, Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas.
I also dabble in watercolors, abstract pattern art, and mandala work.
I was inspired to create Zen & Zin as a way to bring my favorite things together—friends, drinks, and Zentangle. While wine was the initial muse in my “Tangle.Sip.Repeat” motto, it applies to tea, coffee, beer, water, or even a simple breath of air!
I wanted to create an atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy yourself while learning Zentangle…whether you’re viewing my art, engaging with me on Patreon, or attending a live class with me.
Prairie Tanglers Group:
I am also a member of the Prairie Tanglers group. If you’re in the area, please come to one of our meetings! We are meeting virtually until we deem it responsible and safe to meet in person again.
“Sarah is delightful. She’s a great instructor, very encouraging, organized, and thorough. I had a blast!”
“My favorite thing about the Zen and Zin parties is that it brings ALL my favorite things together in one place. Good friends, good food, creativity, inspiration, and fun!”
“Sarah provides the highest quality materials and instruction in a safe, creative and fun environment.”
I’m doing the Diva challenge 314 – relatively new to the challenge, connecting with the community of tanglers who do it, and to having a blog. Shallamps looks like fun – I’m looking forward to playing with it.
Lovely tangle! I’m looking forward to trying it. Wonderful video as well!
Love your Scallamp! Many thanks for sharing!
Lovely tangle! You made a great job with the video too! I will try it more soon!
Scallamp is a Gr8 Dr Seuss image!
Very nice pattern. I love the brown sample!
This is one of the prettiest designs I’ve seen. Perfect timing, as I’ve been on the lookout for a border to use on a few poems I’m gifting.
Trying to subscribe, but it keeps referring me back to Linda Farmer’s Tangle Patterns (where I found you today). I’ve only had time for a quick glance, but I’ve already spotted a few more patterns to explore. Hopefully I’ll figure it out when I can give it more attention.
Thank you for sharing your talents & GREAT JOB on the video… Seriously!

Nice pattern!! I will try it soon. Great job on the video.
Really nice pattern and great video!!
Hi Sarah, I love this pattern. Could you share the coloring for the example that is deep red, rust, amber, white? I am fairly new to zentangle and am trying to learn about shading and coloring. Thank you so much.
I love scallamp, especially the red/amber/white coloring . Would you share what tools you used to achieve the look? Thanks so much. Sharon Newman
Hi Sharon, it was actually a white on black tangle. I don’t normally heavily edit pictures, but this one turned out too funky and cool not to share! I highly recommend Eni Oken’s Shading Zentangle books to learn more about shading and coloring – her instruction is awesome! https://enioken.com/3dtangle/fearless
