Doodle be, doodle do.


Time to doodle.

The smell of fresh ground pepper on fresh cooked scrambled egg, just about to be eaten for a late breakfast?

Just a thought.

Reading a book during a train journey?

Working ideas out, on paper.

Lying in a hammock, swimming in a warm sea at midnight, lying on your back in a meadow counting the stars?

Considering the concept, weighing the challenge.

The smell of a freshly extinguished candle (that’s a second smell), fresh mown grass, fresh ground coffee (two more smells – all fresh - maybe too repetitive.).

Doodling around the idea.

The lights going down in the cinema as the film is about to start.

Need a thread.

Hearing flamenco guitar by the ocean at sunset.
Sunsets!


A reader has challenged me, a top ten. I’m not sure – circling around the concept; what do I like about it, what not? I got bored with all those 100 things to do before you die books that appeared all at once, although I have one. Whom am i writing it for? Or am i reporting? Advice or observation? Or a reminder?

But since I like a challenge.

So …….. time to doodle.

Memories, creation, surprises, that first kiss.

You're one serious doodler -- comprehensive assortment of tools and supplies -- even an electric sander?

Your burgeoning list is a pretty good starting point for each of us to create our own.

You've got me thinking.

Well spotted Mary!
Apparently, in the absence of paper or canvas a piece of wood lightly sanded gives a nice effect.
who would have guessed?
