A Triptych
Image
I'm constantly doodling on folded up pieces of paper that I carry around in my pockets. This one ended up having a nice three-panel pattern. The blue ink was an afterthought/accident. Continue reading

Starting from the center
Image
My doodles tend to start in the center and spiral outward. The flower-like shape in the lower right began with the circle in the center. The shapes with rectangular centers were begun by making quick zig-zags between two fingers. Continue reading

More Post-It Doodles
Image
This one reminds me a little of a Japanese noren - the half curtain that hangs over some doorways. In part, that may be because the color of the ink is close to the traditional blues you see in some Japanese textiles. Continue reading

Back of the envelope
Image
The angles of an envelope present an inviting angle to fill with doodles. Like the lines of a legal pad, the boundaries created by the folds provide a structure at the beginning. Continue reading

Coloring Inside the Lines
Image
Once forms start to emerge in my doodling. I'm then feel the compulsion to color between the lines. Although shading would be a better term for it. These doodles were the result of another client call. You can see my notes: "People interacting with technology." Fascinating. Continue reading

The figure on the upper left reminds me of some kind of kooky pteradactyl. Continue reading

Post-It Pleasures Part Deux
Image
Here's a good one from the other day (I'm back to daily doodling but not quite up to daily posting it seems). This one makes me think of a ray gun. Continue reading

Back From Waikiki

Didn't get much doodling in on my vacation. Stayed away from pen and paper. Seems it's only when I should be thinking about something else that the doodles start flowing... Continue reading

Folded Paper
Image
It's been a weak couple of weeks for posting; the earthquake in Fukushima and several time-consuming projects derailed my almost-daily posts - and my family vacation next week will keep me out of reach of a scanner. But I did manage to scan this one on Friday. Hard to see,... Continue reading

Pen on Paper
Image
Part of the pleasure of doodling is the feeling of the pen on the paper. For some reason, ball-point pens are more satisfying than pencil - unless it's a very sharp pencil - or other sorts of pens. Continue reading

The Hot Corner
Image
The upper right corner of a legal pad is always the sweet spot for doodling. Something about the way the double vertical red lines intersect the blue lines just frames it up right for me. Continue reading

Post-It Doodles II
Image
Today was actually a low output day for me. I did manage to almost cover this post-it note pad. I noticed that it has a different feel depending on which way you hold it. Continue reading
