Doodling is a relaxing, playful exploration that can lead you directly to your unique style and voice.
Materials:
• Sketchbook • Your favorite pencils, pens, or markers
Process:
• Let your hand wander while you sit back and relax. • Listen to some music, a podcast, a movie or show… With a pen and sketchbook in hand, doodle. Just let the hand move over paper without thinking. • Keep your sketchbook with you throughout the day, everyday. Pull it out whenever you have any down time and let your hand play. • Later, incorporate your favorite doodles into larger works. • If you’re stuck, try the Doodle Prompts below.
Sketchbook Reflection:
• After filling several pages, go back through your doodles, noticing what’s there. What do your doodles want to tell you?
