Industrial Doodle
I mentioned yesterday that the title page drawing in my new book was showing through slightly on the following page. However, looking at it today, it didn't seem so bad after all, and perhaps it was due to the fact that the ink was still slightly damp - not wet enough to smudge…

A New Drawing Book
My new drawing book A couple of days ago, my new drawing book arrived. It is a Rhodia Webnotebook, A5 landscape. It has a hard cover with a gorgeous soft smooth surface, in stylish black, with the Rhodia logo discreetly embossed on the front. The corners are rounded, and it is kept closed…

Blodle Art!
Watching Peter Draws again on YouTube, I decided to try his idea for "Blodle Art." This is blob doodling! You start by drawing a blob, and then adding concentric lines around it, a bit like contour lines on a map. You can add as many blobs as you want, and integrate them into…

Some More Doodle Art, and Spring has Sprung
Doodle art Here is a practice doodle piece that I did in my Rhodia notebook. It came out better than I'd hoped. Following Peter Draws on YouTube, I am practising building up a doodle from a single point, rather than drawing lines and filling the spaces between them. In this case, I began…

I also found some interesting videos with instructions for mandala patterns which would also…

More Doodle Art and a Valentine’s Gift
Two more doodle art drawings The first is black and white with a pop of colour in the form of some orange flowers. The second is also mostly black and white apart from the scallop shell in the centre, and this time I have coloured the background. Both pictures were coloured using my…

Frustrations, Kitties, and Spring at Last
Health update - more frustrations! On Sunday I had my CT scan in Exeter as arranged. When I had my first scan there, back in the summer of 2019, Mr. Daniels, the consultant, had said that he wanted me lying on my stomach for it, and when I arrived, there was nothing on…

A Rather Frustrating Day
Somewhat of a frustrating day today, leaving me feeling as if I've been wading through treacle for most of the day! A ripping start to the day (not...) When I made the bed this morning, I ripped the sheet. It was old, and definitely in need of replacement, but not a great start…
