A little blue doodle for a cloudy Sunday. #doodleart #doodle #abstractbotanical #abstractfloral

Today I had the pleasure of teaching 102 twelve-year-olds the basics of doodle art. They were totally into it, and it did my soul a lot of good to hang out and make art with them. Can’t wait to show them my colouring technique next week! #doodleart #yegartist #artistinresidence

This doodle makes me think of tropical adventures, so of course it’s called Margaritaville.

A wee little test of some new Stonehenge paper and some gold leaf. Love the way the colours pop on this 100% cotton rag, but I didn’t get the smooth gradients I get on my regular Arches paper. SUPER shiny gold leaf, but I did find it a bit tedious to do. Must work on my technique! #doodleartist #yeg

I listened to Sir David Attenborough’s life story while drawing this one, and it’s a good thing he’s had such a long and eventful life, as this one is big, and took a long time! Excited to dive into colour now. Stay tuned for greens, blues, yellows and corals, unless I change my mind in the process!

The opposite of a restrained palette! This Rainbow Connection was challenging to do, but I’m thrilled with the effect.

I hope it brightens your Good Friday!

New piece, a more restrained palette than usual!

Pen and paper and my imagination. Wonderful companions for a Saturday afternoon.

Cute and colourful for spring β€” belying the fact there’s still almost a foot of snow on the ground where I am!

I love this. Thanks Trick!

I’m a doodle artist, and I’m trying to build my social media presence. I’d love a follow on Blue Sky or Insta (doodly.doo.doodles). I share a few times a week, and I talk about my artwork, my process, and where you can see my work in person, if you’re so inclined!

My mother-in-law’s name was Violet Rose. We lost her a couple of days ago, so I drew this little flower garden in her honour. If you think of a flower today, please do so for her.

It’s #ThirdWinter here in my #WinterCity, with a foot of snow falling in the last 24 hours, but we know that spring is just around the corner. This little flower garden is a helpful reminder…

Another finished baby! I started this one at the Night of Artists Art Walk, and it was exciting to see it come together. The smoky blue worried me at first, but now it’s my favourite part!

I might just do that! Though palette planning is half the fun for me. :)

A new doodle. I can’t wait to colour this one! Not sure what palette I’ll use, but figuring it out is the best part!

I made these last night, inspired by President Zelenskyy’s courage in the face of a bully. They’ll be for sale at the Night of Artists Art Walk (March 14-16) in #yeg, and all proceeds will go to Ukrainian relief efforts. It’s not much, but it’s something.

New to me colours on this one! I normally choose colours that are bright and clear, but I decided to play with muted tones. I found it challenging to bring in the light, and halfway through, I was ready to chuck it. But happy with it now, after some metallic ink and canary yellow!

I was worried about this one half way through the process. But my motto is β€œDraw until you like it.” So I did, and now I do!

What a difference paper makes!

I’m working on a giant doodle on Strathmore mixed media, and it’s giving me no end of trouble. So, I jumped into a wee piece as a refresh, and used glorious Arches hot press watercolour paper. This paper is a DREAM to work with and takes colour so beautifully!
