Here you go, @jennispangler.bsky.social
Paying on time this week.

Doodleish

Suggestions : a single place setting at a huge dinner table. A ship in a deep sea, something in outer space, etc. It might suggest loneliness or a circumstance that is silent / quiet, etc. Your negative space doesn't have to be white paper. E.g: candlelight in the darkness.

#Doodleish no:9  'Negative space'. 

 🧵A compositional task that focuses on empty space around your image to enhance its effect. E.G: emphasizing a large empty room or as the example, a large open empty outdoor space. Have a go. It can be anything. Over to @jennispangler.bsky.social

Here I am with today's #Doodleish no 7 : season 2.
Illustrated song lyrics. Make it as simple /complex as you wish. Just draw out the words &/or, add more arty content. Here's one (with rough ideas) & some that I did ages ago.
@jennispangler.bsky.social will respond with hers also...

Here it is. Apologies for the late arrival of my doodleish example. More to come Thursday...

Doodleish season 2
Prompt: 5
I've always loved illustrated envelopes so I thought we could have a go. You can use an actual envelope if you like. I've drawn mine on the page. Have fun. 'Send it/them' to whoever you want... @jennispangler.bsky.social will respond as always...

You’re not under time pressure with Doodleish. You can have fun with it whenever you want. Here’s me finishing @jennispangler.bsky.social ‘s prompt from Sunday. Next one is tomorrow at midday…

Here's mine. A Robot version. I haven't quite finished yet. Here it is up to now ...

Doodleish No:3 (season 2)
Firstly, sketch an everyday object (in my case, a teacup), then use your imagination to have fun with your subject matter. It can be anything. No constraints. Turn it into a character, simplify it, decorate it, etc. @jennispangler.bsky.social will respond below...

I’ll arrive at midday with a prompt for doodleish. See you soon.
November 9, 2023 at 8:02 AM
Here's mine. Lovely idea.

The desk looks very different today. Safe to say, I am 'faffing'...

This is a good way to take in what's around you and allows focus on small areas of interest. 

I’ve taken the opportunity to look outside my studio at the mill buildings.

Enjoy the return to Doodleish
Can't wait to your results. Jenni will respond accordingly

Doodleish No: 1 (season2)
With me n' @jennispangler.bsky.social

Nice and steady to start with, working inside small squares/ rectangles. It’s a gentle way
back onto the page without committing to a large / full or finished image. 🧵1/2
