Something New To Explore...

These are my newest project...I'm exploring deeper into doodles. Quite sometime ago I was having fun with doodles. I now have found two amazing books to help me.  Zenspirations Letters and Patterning. and Zenspirations Dangle Designs. Joanne Fink is the author of both. She makes the instructions so very easy. Step by step to make your own versions. If you like to doodle look into these books. You can use a variety of tools. Markers, colored pencils, ink, and watercolors.

Blocks Of Art

I would like to introduce my latest endeavor.

I call them Blocks of Art.

If you go back a few posts ago,  you might remember that I was experimenting with backgrounds. I was also playing around with doodling. With this new attempt I have put them together!

 

 

The process starts by doodling on  drawing paper.

I use a fine brush tip marker, which allows for varing widths of lines. Then I incorperate different types of pens. I have fun doodling, but tend towards flowers.

 

 I mount the designed papers on blocks of wood of various sizes.

 I present them on small easels. I think they are so cute.

 They fit nicely on a  bookshelf or anywhere.

They will soon appear in my ETSY store.

Round and Round

I wanted to step out of the normal square format. Working with different shapes and patterns I came up with these.

Happy Valentines Day...

Just a little Valentines Day greeting and some of my doodles to go along with it. Hope they make you smile and spark your creativity.

Doodles

I have always created doodles like these, for as long as I can remember. I use a black Uniball drawing pen and sometimes I add a touch of color. I combine swirls, paisleys, hearts, circles, flowers and anything that I feel like adding. These doodles all come together to create an intricate design on mat board. No pre drawing outlining done whatsoever.
