confessions of a mad doodler…

Oh, how I detest days without thought,
without reachings and searchings,

without dreams and without creation.

    Love the dark swirls of the tree over the watercolors. The quote is also quite fab- getting added immediately to my list of ones to remember and reflect on.

    vivian…OMG, you’ve given me too much credit!!! I chose to focus this week’s topic only on the doodling aspect since it’s something I try to relax with every day!

    i must be honest…your work makes me teeter between being ultimately inspired and never wanting to attempt anything remotely artistic again because i could never even come close to achieving what you do just by “doodling”…but i’ll just go with “inspired” and have one helluva time playing :-)
    thanks for your kind comment for otherwise i may not have found your site in this vast BlogWorld!
