Hello and Welcome! I hope that you enjoy my books.
I am currently trying to clean out my studio(s) and culling the collections of toys, tableware and art supplies is really slow-going and painful. I was accepted to grad school (cartooning!) and need tuition money, so I will be listing many of the best items here in my shop. I hope you see something you love.
And do please show off your creations inspired by my books - I love feedback.

5 out of 5 starsSuch a great idea to tangle fashion! It’s like designing your own fabric!

5 out of 5 starsI loved Sandy's previous Inspiration Sketchbook (Tangles of Kells) and was very happy when she put the digital edition of this one - Tangles of Santa Fe - in the store. She combined a wonderful sense of Southwest aesthetic with good Zentangle practice, step-outs, and project ideas. This book lets beginners and beyond develop a Southwest style.

5 out of 5 starsNicely done. Helpful for inspiration when you don’t know where to start. Pick a card and use the pattern.

Tangled Artist Comes Out of Her Shell
I've been an illustrator my entire life. One of my earliest works became the logo for my first rubber stamp company. I've continued the tradition (of harvesting kid art) with my own children - my son started his own line of stamps at age four - and my daughter is the youngest published Zentangle® artist. Her creation, the Lilah Bean, is the star of a comic book and loved by tons of kids (and quite a few grown-ups too).
Bumblebat, my Etsy shop, started out selling my self-published book, AlphaTangle, in 2009 (or so) and now sells all my books as well as tangling supplies.
I hope to start adding in more of my original artwork and rubber stamp designs.
Originally a determined introvert, I am passionate about creativity and teaching/helping people (of all ages) to remember the joy they felt when drawing and coloring. Everyone still has a spark of creativity in them - igniting that spark can change lives!
2015 - Updated story:
I applied, and was accepted to The Center for Cartoon Studies to get my Masters in Applied Cartooning! Yeah me! But now I have to come up with the tuition and then move to Vermont. So I am sorting through my studio and trying to pull out all the extra supplies, etc. I will be listing them here for your shopping pleasure. ;-)

Closet Beastie sat in for Alex (and ate his snack!) Alex is a teenager and as hard to photograph as a monster who lives in a closet... um... maybe MORE difficult. Actually Alex is a super-talented dancer and musician. He also writes real good.
