Doodle 7 and 8 of 365

Trying out interesting shapes for a painting I'm doing today and tomorrow.

One of the men I was watching on a cam.  He ignored me completely but at least I got a drawing out of it.

Halloween Drawings Skull and Witch

These really took me too long for me to consider them doodles. But maybe they will inspire others to doodle today. The top one is ballpoint pen on calligraphy paper, and the witch is done in crayons on calligraphy paper.

Noodlehead

That title got stuck in my head so I'm sticking with it.

Piggies & Other Doodles

Keeping a monthly journal has given me plenty of opportunities to doodle. Sometimes expressing my feelings is easier with a drawing than with words. Look at the mouth of the robot that shows my anger and frustration at being addicted to sugar. And I've drawn piggies in this style for years. I thought my style was the way everyone drew pigs but then I found some pigs on this blog that were quite different. . Which just goes to show, never take your own work for granted.

Mandalalike Zentangles?

Drawing as meditation? A cheap marketing ploy? A little of both? After seeing a youtube video on it I thought I'd make some even though I don't know the 'official rules'. At least it gave me an excuse to draw a bit.

Homeless Souls

I rolled out of bed this morning and made a drawing called "homeless souls", because so many are losing their housing because of foreclosures. It's affecting both home owners and those who rent. If the person you rent from is losing the house in foreclosure, you have to move. It's been on my mind a lot lately.
