This is a work in progress. The line art is done and I’m starting to colour it in. I’ve used Chameleon pens so far, though as I progress I may use Copics or Promarkers to fill in some areas.

Today’s doodle
Me and people … it’s kind of a ‘meh’ thing. I try … and it’s never right. All the same, here’s today’s doodle, with a kind of fairy/angel person in the middle…

Top 20 Doodle Artist Sites and a coloured Doodlededoo
I had a big surprise earlier today when a facebook tag led me to a list of the top 20 doodle blogs/sites, and I appear on it at number 14! I’m honoured to be listed alongside such great artists as are in the list.
Here’s the link to the list: http://blog.feedspot.com/doodle_blogs/
I also have used my trusty Copics to colour in one of the doodlededoos shown in the last post. I think I’m getting a bit bolder in my colour choices. I’m also choosing to use a flat colour in background elements; on marker paper, the ink blends smoothly and seamlessly so large areas can be coloured in without any streakiness.

Yesterday’s doodleedoo all coloured
I had a moment of ‘genius’ and printed out the drawing on Winsor and Newton Marker paper. I checked my printer could take such light-weight paper, and it could, and am I glad it can!
Marker paper makes it so much easier to blend alcohol markers, such as Copic, and it’s very white colour means the marker colours remain luminous.

Today’s doodlededoo!
A little bit different, just a little, but fun all the same! I’m really going to have to print and colour this one I think!

Coloured doodle-de-doo
Between a couple of ‘meh’ days, busy days with appointments, I’ve managed to colour this particular illustration of mine.
I coloured this one using copics, and the scan has washed some colours out.

Today’s doodle
I’ve had a couple of days busy with other matters and not much time to spend on drawing. Today, however, I’ve taken the time to relax with pen and paper. I’m feeling a bit out of sorts today. I think that’s reflected in the drawing.

Sunday afternoon ‘doodle’
Yes, I know; two doodles in one day. My only decision now is whether or not to colour them and if I do, what media to use!

Sunday morning ‘doodle’
Having fun, but I think I’ll do something a little different later on today.
Oh, I finally got round to figuring out a ‘doodle’ cuttlefish, which makes me quite happy! The badger also makes an appearance, along with a koala, pig, panda and monkey. A fairy cat just adds to the whimsy. My morning mug of tea is there too!
