Letter C Again

I liked the letter C yesterday so much that I thought I'd try another. This one stands out more from the background rather than blending in.

Letter C

I like this version of the letter C a lot and intentionally let it creep outside the top border. The letter blends into the design rather than standing out.

Alphabet Series - Letter A

I am fascinated by the use of words in visual art and love the shapes of letters. I've used them occasionally as subjects over time and thought it was time to try them as doodles. The designs have nothing to do with the letter -- I'm not trying to use designs that start with the letter A, like apples and aardvarks. I just like the designs.

Doodle #36

As much as I love the wild contour lines in some of the other doodles, I really like the parallel lines in this one. Very stylized!

Doodle #35

This ACEO reminds me of something that has grown up too close to a wall and is all squished. I like how the organic form fills the space even though it looks much too big for the space. You're welcome to interpret the drawing in any way you wish.

This one is drawn with sepia ink on heavy paper.

Oodles of Doodles



I've begun posting my doodles in my Etsy shop:

I'll post a few more here over the next few days, and then we'll move on to something else. I love them and will continue to do them, but have other ideas brewing, too! Stay tuned...
