Keep up the doodling

This is just a glimpse of some of the work I did recently for a series of whimsical educational picture books... which I can't really show yet because I haven't got the published books yet...

A friend living in Greece emailed me a link to this artist in Buenos Aires, ah the wonder of the internet. And I just thought it was so brilliant I had to mention it. It's fascinating, "an ambigous animation painted on public walls" by an artist named Blu.

It kind of reminded me of some of the sketches I used to do in high school except infinitely more talented and evolved. Luckily I don't have to compete with this kind of artistry because as you know I now spend my days drawing things like the one at the top of this post. And this.

    Thanks for the little inspiration on doodling. I think drawing cute and silly little illustrations are is my favorite craft. I can sit for hours on my back porch with my sketch pad in hand.

    Am I correct in thinking that the title for this post comes from The Office?

  7. Very cute. So doodling is something I guess I should encourage in our house!
