My very favorite artist is Cicely Mary Barker, the famous self-taught fairy artist. Perhaps it will be the beginning of a new life's adventure! Secondly, whenever someone reacts to my work by thinking, 'Oh, I could do that!' To inspire them to pick up a pen, find their own style, and experience the joy of art. Our hallway is a showcase for nine of my earlier works and when I see them I'm still amazed they are my creation. The creative process, then the surprising end result. What do you enjoy the most about being an artist?

I purchase them locally at an educational supply store, but they are also available online and at some art stores. They are fat, ergonomically correct, and fit on the Micron pens I use. Another critical tool for me is the Pencil Grip, for without them my hands wouldn't be up to the hours of drawing. What are your favorite brand(s) of pens or markers to use for your doodles?Ĭurrently I'm using the Sakura Micron pens because they do a decent job for being cost effective. Sometimes I draw just so I can have something to upload. Anything larger loses too much detail when reduced. The smaller sizes are easier to photograph and upload to the website. I've drawn several 19' x 24', but normally use either 9' x 12' or 11' x 14'.

The smallest doodle is probably about 1' x 1'.

Doodles fun
