Doodling for Stress Reduction

 

On Mondays via Zoom, I participate in a class where we spend a half an hour doodling our stress away. 

The suggestion for the class began with a quote from artist, Paul Klee. "A line is a dot that went for a walk." The doodle began with a border and a scribble. In the round or oval shapes, to draw petal shapes. The space behind the petals could be colored black or some other color.

We are always free to interpret the instructions as we wish. I wrote out the quote and then drew the petal shapes as flowers.

  2. Reckon Rudy Rucker´s book Fourth Dimension would be a good read for you. The dot, the line, a² :-)

  8. The first thing I noticed was the ladybug. One tiny bit of color and my eye went straight to it. Lovely drawing.

    1. I thought without a bit of color the drawing was boring
