inspiration monday


i've discovered that one of the many "things i love about inspiration" is that it's patient. it was inspiration that gave me the notion to carry on with a "season series".....and it was also inspiration that suggested i keep this doodle out on my work table in plain view. because every time i would glance over at it, inspiration was whispering "hey doodle artist, remember me?!". but i think that even inspiration's patience has its limits, so yesterday i finally took out my supplies and had some doodle fun.....and now all of these "things i love about summer" have become a rainbow-doodle-reality!! woo hoo!

thanks, inspiration, for all of your gentle nudges.....
and please hang in there with me until i can get
the doodles for winter and spring finished.... :))

doodle supplies: micron pens, watercolor pencils, waterbrush,
arches 90 lb. hot press paper
you can watch me work on the autumn doodle here.

  13. except what happened to "chocolate" on your summertime list? You might just have to adapt your logo to include a chocolate kiss with your heart. ;-)
