I’m really loving my new art journal that my husband got me for Christmas. (I ordered it for myself on Amazon, and gifted it to myself–thanks honey). I’m already half way through it with doodles, and observational drawings. It’s fun because I can just run through different ideas without the seriousness that goes into the more expensive art papers, or pieces of basswood that I burn on.
I’ve had lots of sketch books but I really like the grid paper it makes doing ellipses, squares and other shapes much easier. Also proportions are easy to see as I’m sketching. I highly recommend graph paper if you like to draw or are trying to teach yourself to draw.
I needed some color today so I made this doodle. Thanks for stopping by.
