Happy Valentines Day
I'm not a very good "doodler" so I bring a Doodle Sketchbook when I go visit my mother each week. During the cold weather. we go for a long walk in her Senior complex and sit for awhile on a bench, in a glass crosswalk, in the sun. Last week I doodled hearts and actually finished multiple ones while we sat for an hour and talked.
This weekend, I resized them and used them as Valentine gift cards for our grandchildren. Even doodling takes deliberate practice! Having a separate sketchbook has made me very loose and experimental. I bring a simple set of watercolor pencils with me, a water brush, and pen - plenty of tools for this activity.
