Whenever I doodle without worrying about the end result, the drawing seems to have more personality than when I draw for something specific. It’s like the inner critic looks the other way while I go have some fun.
I used a Pentel Pocket brush pen for the outline, which is permanent ink, then a brown water soluble fountain pen ink for the wash. Drawn on hot-pressed watercolor paper.
Thank you for Mr. Mutt.
I have a friend who uses the same technique when drawing flowers. The results are really interesting.
Keep that inner critic distracted and have fun!
