Daily Idea #26: Doodle Bug

Welcome back to the abnormal normal schedule! We have Passover behind us and we are ready to dive back into daily ideas.

Today’s idea is to find pictures within scribbles.

  1. Get a blank piece of paper (I use printer paper) and a pencil.

2. Create your frame

Make a square “frame” on your paper (about 4 inches X 4 inches). You can create more then one work of art per page

3. Doodle Away

Take your pencil and draw droopy lines inside the frame that you created. Make as many overlapping lines as you would like until you start to see shapes appear.

4. Add as many lines as you’d like

I didn’t think I had enough lines on my first go around, so I added more.

5. Darken up the images

When you begin to see images “popping” out from the loopy lines go over them with your pencil or a pen to make them darker and allow them to stand out.

6. Finish your art

Use markers or colored pencils to color in any shapes that you’d like to stand out.
