Doodling ~

At one time I thought I would love to be an illustrator for children's books . . . I'm mostly a doodler :)

Doesn't she look like an Emma?



And this one, well, more like a Tammy Faye-style pixie or sprite!

Dawn, these are excellent. They aren't doodles, they're proper drawings. What are you waiting for??? xoxo

Such fun doodles! Got to love the Tammy Faye one! I collect books by certain children's illustrators and think is one of the most wonderful art forms. Here is a fun web site I think you will enjoy: http://www.ortakales.com/illustrators/
It is one of my favorite places of inspiration! Happy Tuesday!

I love the fairy ears! You should pursue this art venture. I bet you could self-publish a wonderful children's story.

I love the way they look!! The last one looks like it would make a great drawing of my grandmother in my story. Speaking of which, I really need to write some more, I miss it, but I am so busy lately with the wonderful stress of life.

You are so talented! If I could "doodle" like you do, I could publish the childrens' books that I wrote!
