DESCRIPTION:
Who among us doesn’t simply love to doodle—or, at the very least, doodle to pass the time during long meetings or classes? Now you can learn the fine art of doodling while exercising your creativity at the same time. Creative Doodling & Beyondfeatures a fun variety of projects, prompts, exercises, and ideas to get your doodling juices flowing, while also providing inspiration for how to use your doodles creatively. Artists will begin with some warm-up exercises and basic drawing instruction. From there, they’ll embark on creating projects with doodles that get progressively more advanced through the book, starting with a gift tag and ending with elaborate doodling projects on wood and fabric.
Lots to love, even if you don't like the projects Kindle Customer by IlahEven with many pages left blank for practicing, this is still a pretty good sized book with lots of material. There is a lot more here than in the thin little zentangle books. (The zentangle books are good, just a little thin for the price.)It is a really beautiful book. It is fun to look through.I like having the blank practice space in the book. I enjoy going through the book practicing all the doodles, it is very relaxing. I find myself more likely to practice as opposed to other books I have where I have to get out a separate piece of paper to doodle with.Once I have practiced the doodles, I find myself incorporating many . Rachel B. Ramey (blogger/author) said Fun Doodling Activities. This book is well-done and a lot of fun, but be sure it's what you're looking for. This is NOT a "how to doodle" book. (Etsy seller Chubby Mermaid has an AMAZING book for that purpose -- perfect for those of us who need actual instructions to doodle!) It's more doodling prompts and projects.They're very approachable, with easy-to-follow instructions and -- for most -- plenty of room to practice right inside the book. The pages are even extra-sturdy to hold up to "wetter" media. A few projects will need to be done outside the book just due to their nature. There's a project that involves doodling on wood, one that is for textiles, etc. Great book but I wish it were spiral bound This book is very fun, especially if you're waiting in an emergency room It has a lot of tips and ideas and places for you to do your own. Even when finished scribbling in the book I'll keep it for the ideas. I could do without the project pages - those are kind of a waste as I can figure out my own projects, but others may really enjoy them. It's strictly personal preference I guess. I took it to Staples to have it spiral bound which made it a lot easier to work in. Now it lays flat and I can get to the edges of each page better. It's kind of annoying to have to hold the book folded back or hold it open on a desk and it doesn't lay
