Fantastic !

Ho ho ho , here are my tasteless festive funnies. That's enough jollity for one year... Look out for the doodleish end of year giveaway over on the twitter.

Doodleish No:9 Calligrams ( a word or piece of text in which the design / layout of the letters gives visual reference to the word ) Over to my good friend and creative clever clogs @jennispangler.bsky.social

Don't worry Jacqui. We miss you, of course , but it's there for when you want it. Take good care of yourself. X

#doodleish 10 - a super simple prompt today - MONEY

Invent some fictional currencies or sketch some real ones.

That’s all I can think of to say about this one! Happy doodling!

Over to you @chrismould.bsky.social

Here you go, @jennispangler.bsky.social
Paying on time this week.

Doodleish

Doodleish response - sketchbook spread showing a man walking beneath a street light in the rain

I did my negative space in black just to be contrary

Suggestions : a single place setting at a huge dinner table. A ship in a deep sea, something in outer space, etc. It might suggest loneliness or a circumstance that is silent / quiet, etc. Your negative space doesn't have to be white paper. E.g: candlelight in the darkness.

#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

This is glorious

Thanks for a great prompt @jennispangler.bsky.social Here's my Doodleish attempt...

Doodleish song lyrics, with apologies to oasis for the misquote

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...

Oooh I especially love the long format landscape at the top

A series of jars, drawn in black and white pen, each depicting a storytelling scene within the glass.

Here it is. Apologies for the late arrival of my doodleish example. More to come Thursday...

A sketchbook spread of illustrated envelopes by Chris Mould

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...

You’re not under time pressure with Doodleish. You can have fun with it whenever you want. Here’s me finishing @jennispangler.bsky.social ‘s prompt from Sunday. Next one is tomorrow at midday…

I'm loving your line. These are great.

Loving that character Nici

Proper books. Brilliant stuff.

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.

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.

I love this. Really like the muted colour approach too. Very niiiiice. Hope the conf was good.

My interpretation of today’s Doodleish alphabet prompt 😊 @jennispangler.bsky.social @chrismould.bsky.social

Sorry Jacqui , thought I'd responded and I haven't. I love how much you've put into this. T'is a full and wholesome spread.

Füller- und Filzstiftzeichnung eines alten Buchs

Füller und Filzstiftzeichnungen rund ums Buch: ein altes Buch, Buch mit Herz, ein Buchzelt, ein schiefer Turm aus Büchern, ein Buchmonster, ein furchtsames Buch, eine Buchflüsterin mit fliegenden Büchern, ein Bücherthron, ein kochendes Kochbuch mit Topf, ein Buch mit sich wellenden Seiten und Piratenschiff, ein Survival-Buch mit Taschenmesser-Funktionen

@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

You have got hold of this idea 100%. These are fantastic. What an imagination.

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

#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?

Here's mine. A Robot version. I haven't quite finished yet. Here it is up to now ...

Yes. Just as good.
