The Art of the Doodle....express your thoughts

Intro to Drawing and Painting


What is a doodle?  Is it daydreaming on paper?  Give it a try.  In your sketchbook start drawing whatever comes to mind. Maybe you want to write some words, draw abstract lines-whatever you like.  You can even talk to a friend while doing this.  Have fun with it, express yourself.

Artists are fortunate because they are able to express themselves as they create. I really love the way Jeremy Collins shows a feeling of sadness and support in this doodle that has been turned into a print.  He really captures the weight of the grief of the person seated.  The red arms show the connection everyone has to the person seated and how they want to help.  If you would like to find out more about this print and Jeremy Collins check out the following sites.
