Doodling Along.

Mojo has certainly taken social distancing to the extreme. I can't seem to settle to anything much at the moment but the one thing I have found to distract me is Doodling!
Barbara Gray (Clarity Stamps) has started doing live Doodling sessions on her Clarity face book page 10 am in the mornings. I only found out about it a week ago so I have been playing catch up with the lessons which can be found on You Tube once they have  gone live. I like watching the videos as I can start and pause them when I like and there is no pressure for me to keep up.
These are just a few of the ones I am most pleased with. See what you think. Not master pieces by any chalk but I enjoyed doodling  them. All you need is a piece of copy/printer paper, a pencil, micron pen and an eraser!.






 The next lesson is all about Japan and I'm about to start a Geisha Girl.  Gulp!!


Keep Safe and Well.

These are great - sure you enjoyed doing them at your leisure. I knew about this project but thought I couldn't access them because of not 'doing' Facebook. Discovered a few days ago that they are now on YouTube so lots of catching up for me as well. Not sure I could aspire to a Geisha but we will see, look forward to seeing how you get on.

Its funny seeing doodling suddenly popping up everywhere i go in craft land - its something ive done for years to relax, and its ideal for waiting rooms as all you need is a book and pen. Anyway loving all your doodles - brilliant work. Emmax

Your doodling creations are amazing, Mrs A. My doodling always looks like a three year old has done it - perhaps I need to practise more! xx

I think our brains are all trying to re-wire to adapt to a new way of life, and our crafting has shifted elsewhere for the time being. Your doodling looks incredible and you're very good at it! These are all impressive and I especially like the heart with LIFE in the center! Good job, and good luck with the Geisha girl!

Darnell said...

Anne, this is your undiscovered niche! You are doing an excellent job with your doodling! That last one has the feel of an ancient Asian ink painting, worthy of a frame! You go! I think this would be the ultimate way to distract oneself and keep ones creativity alive. Thank for sharing! Take care and keep on keeping safe! Hugs, Darnell

Michelle said...
