If you do art, then you also doodle. Really! No matter how hard you may try to keep it a secret, you doodle, and people all know it. So, since the secret is out… Here are some of my doodles. This jester-sort-of-half-white-clown was a doodle yesterday while watching TV… something I do with my hands while my mind is doing something else.
Here’s another doodle… same day, different piece of paper, different TV show.
But not all doodles are meandering swirls and girls. I have a whole book of home-made cartoons that start with a blank page and end up with a page that furthers whatever curious cartoon story I am trying to make. Here are a few examples of that.
Now, I know your doodles probably look nothing like mine. My doodles are seriously demented. I have doodled enough that I have seriously worry about going blind. And my doodles are influenced by a lifetime of bad arty-habits. But they do give me practice. They also help me think. They relieve stress. And they make an easy and somewhat racy post.

Your doodles are better than some of my serious attempts 🙂
Thank you… but I don’t know how that can be true. Doodles are just raw squiggly-wigglies and can’t really be compared.
it is the life they contain 🙂
All doodles are not created equal. Mine are pre-pre-school compared to these. Well done, Dr. Doodle.
Dr. Doodle? Whoa! Is that a super-villain name? Arch nemesis of Batman or the Fantastic Four? “He doodles while Gotham burns!” Ah… maybe not.
He is Dr. Doolittle’s cousin who would rather draw animals than talk with them.
These are awesome! I especially like the woodpeckers 😀
I made a whole comic-book style story about the feud between the Catfields and the McPeckerwoods. I hope to draw it as finished art someday soon and publish somewhere… here at the very least.
I’d love to see that. Even if you don’t draw it as a finished piece, you should put it up here 🙂
I am definitely working on it.
