My blue suade Nine West shoe I wore to work. Yay for sketch #2... 100 seems more daunting today!

Doo·dle [ dood'l ] verb: A doodle is a small, mindless sketch (although some doodles may represent unconscious thought). People usually make doodles while bored or concentrating on something else, such as talking on the phone or passing time in lectures.

A Sketch a day...
So I decided to get back to basics and do some sketching... once I get back into the swing of things I'll aim for 10 or 30 minute sketches... until then I'm slow and awkward and this one took me awhile. (I'm so used to cartoons or abstract!!)
I REALLY want to do one sketch a day for 100 days. I am REALLY REALLY going to try to do this! I can spare 10 minutes right?! If I can't spare 10 minutes I need to rearrange my schedule, (maybe pick up some Montana brochures)
**Side Note** Whoever can tell me where the 'Montana brochures' joke is from will win a doodle print or card set or notebook of their choosing. Just comment on this post with your answer by Monday.

Wayback Wednesday
The title of the today's blog says it all... way-back Wednesday! I'm pulling one out of the back of the closet.This is a piece I did for my design fundamentals project. We had to show gradient through the morphing of shapes, in this case 4 circles and the shifting of the "stages". And yes... it is done in my favorite medium, sharpie marker. haha

I'm back.. for real this time!
Hey! Happy Tuesday that thinks it's a Monday! I am sorry for my absence recently. I've been sick this past week and didn't do any art work. But I did get to paint for a few hours last night AND did some sketching! My sketch isn't done yet, but I can share the progress of my painting since it seems like I will NEVER be finished!
I worked on the yellow (it's hard to see) and I touched up the green.

Doodle... Cars?!
I thought this was SO cool, talk about taking doodling to a whole new level! (Uncle Chris, I'm sure you'll appreciate these pictures, especially the one below)
Artist's commentary from the website:"First off... I'm going to bet 50% of people are going to hate this .. but i'm ok with that. I did take "inspiration" from the "sharpie lamborghini" (props to him, this took me about 12 hours) , but I have been doing artwork with sharpies for a while so this isn't my first time at this (AKA don't try this at home).
I will do a proper photoshoot when my new wheels come in in a couple of weeks, but I know you all had to see this!
Yes.. I painted my car with a sharpie paint pen...and here are the pics to prove it and to keep people from thinking it is a vinyl wrap. enjoy and comment all you like."

Design Fundamentals
I'll admit, I haven't been very productive at all this week. But I really want to do some work tonight. Until then I will dig something out of my (dwindling) archives.
This project was for my Design Fundamentals class I took my fall of my senior year of college. Yes, Design Fundamentals sounds like a freshman class, and trust me that's who my constituents were... but it was a Rutgers class and I used it as an elective... plus I needed it to take my painting class. In retrospect, both classes changed my life. I honestly don't know where I'd be without them! Not to be cocky or vain, but I was definitely ahead of the curve in my Design Fundamentals class. But that's not to say I didnt' learn anything. I challenged myself by adding another element to the project.. make it harder on myself. My teacher allowed me to take this liberties after awhile :)
This is the project that definitely changed it all... changed my thoughts on abstract art... it was a platform for my doodles to develop. The goal of the project was to create a black and white design where you can't tell which color is the foreground and which is the background.
