doodle book: Discovering Your Visual Language

Now available as an eBook for Kindle!
Clemens Bookstore

One drawback for publishing the book for Kindle reading is that all of the doodles and art pieces are no longer in color. I felt that the contents were so rich in information and exercises that the lower pricing for eBooks out-weighed the loss of color. The art is strong enough to translate my intensions from color to black and white imagery.

Escapes

Cityscape
This doodle began with a simple shape in the center. From that point on it became an exercise in adding decorative elements, incorporating both positive and negative spaces.

My early doodles were mostly created with a black felt pen and then enhanced with a red felt pen. In Cityscape I've added a blue color as well, which opened the door to later doodles that exploded with the full color spectrum.
