I did my negative space in black just to be contrary

#Doodleish no:9 'Negative space'. 🧵A compositional task that focuses on empty space around your image to enhance its effect. E.G: emphasizing a large empty room or as the example, a large open empty outdoor space. Have a go. It can be anything. Over to @jennispangler.bsky.social

I like this one, it’s good for a ‘not sure what to draw’ day

Here I am with today's #Doodleish no 7 : season 2. Illustrated song lyrics. Make it as simple /complex as you wish. Just draw out the words &/or, add more arty content. Here's one (with rough ideas) & some that I did ages ago. @jennispangler.bsky.social will respond with hers also...

Doodleish season 2 Prompt: 5 I've always loved illustrated envelopes so I thought we could have a go. You can use an actual envelope if you like. I've drawn mine on the page. Have fun. 'Send it/them' to whoever you want... @jennispangler.bsky.social will respond as always...

On the way back from my writing conference, #doodleish prompt 2 with my TWSBI Swipe fountain pen, a highlighter and a bit of pencil for the layout. Ink is Diamine Ancient Copper. Interesting thinking about books that influenced me in context of all the writing workshops I just finished.

A notebook page showing doodles of the covers of Roald Dahl's Matilda, A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers, The White Dragon by Anne McCaffrey, and a phone showing several thumbnail covers. It is drawn in a red-orange ink with yellow accents.

The same spread as before this time showing the entire notebook with three pens placed down on the facing page.

@chrismould.bsky.social Choose an everyday object and use your imagination to have fun with it… ! Yes! For me it has to be a book… #doodleish no. 3 #doodle #kleinekunstklasse #doodle #zeichnen #kritzelei @jennispangler.bsky.social

#doodleish prompt 4: All the children’s books last week made me nostalgic, so let’s go back to basics with our ABCs! Instead of A is for apple, B is for ball, create your own alphabet chart with any theme. I’ve done a gothic ABC (of course…) What’ve you got @chrismouldink?

A sketchbook page with a gothic version of an ABC chart - A is for arsenic, B is for betrayal, and so on!

Doodleish No:3 (season 2) Firstly, sketch an everyday object (in my case, a teacup), then use your imagination to have fun with your subject matter. It can be anything. No constraints. Turn it into a character, simplify it, decorate it, etc. @jennispangler.bsky.social will respond below...

No pressure and no deadlines - feel free to dip in and out and take your time. If you’re taking part, say hello and I’ll add you to the list. Once you’re on my list, any time you post with the word ‘doodleish’ it will show up in the doodleish feed for all of your fellow scribblers to find.

Jenni's version of today's doodleish prompt. I love that she's in an old pottery factory and I'm in an old carpet factory. P.S. You don't need to draw an old factory.

Doodleish No: 1 (season2) With me n' @jennispangler.bsky.social Nice and steady to start with, working inside small squares/ rectangles. It’s a gentle way back onto the page without committing to a large / full or finished image. 🧵1/2

#doodleish (season 2) starts tomorrow if you want to join @JenniSpangler1 ‘n’ me for some chilled sketchbook exercises. I’ve missed doing this and missed seeing your brilliant results. Also available on the Twitter. Let’s have fun… prompts on Thursdays and Sundays at midday

A very lovely sketchbook page that I stole from Jenni Spangler.

Join us in the battle against the blank page. Take up your pen and do your bit to conquer the relentless swarm of empty paper - one notebook, scrapbook and sketchbook at a time! Down with empty pages!
