I am (drawing) board

in #art9 years ago (edited)

I am the chairman of the board

I use drawing boards all the time, they provide a sturdy surface to rest my drawing paper on, especially when I'm working outside. I also have a habit of trying out colours and doodling on them. The longer I use a board the more interesting the surface of it gets, like a piece of artwork in its own right.

So this is just one of my drawing boards, it's the perfect surface for a good doodle!

I like to doodle whatever pops into my head!

What do you like to doodle?

Sort:  

I love doodles, I think you should frame the board, or at least frame photos from pieces of it. Might be cheaper. And save wall space, since you will probably keep doodling, filling more and more boards ( :
I did an Easter post awhile back utilizing a friend's doodles I 'borrowed', I think the variability within peoples scribbles are fascinating. And maybe telling, of SOMETHING. Thanks for sharing your board and inspirational dabbles.

So many great ideas! Even though the doodles are done at separate times whilst i'm working on different art pieces, you can see how the previous doodles influence the new ones.

It's like your own personal pictograph wall. I doodle shapes that usually end up as animals or people. I know I'm wrapped up in my thinking when I can't get the eyes and mouth in a simple happy face, lol. It happens!

Doodling is a great activity to do, it helps with the thinking process.

I don't know what I would do without doodling. It's one reason I never moved to taking notes on a tablet or laptop when I am at work meetings. A doodle on a device is not the same!

Always surprise us with something nice, no matter what you do, creativity and imagination is always present, thank you very much lady @opheliafu for sharing this beautiful work

I'm happy my work can still surprise you!

Hahaha... I ruined many technical drawing boards with doodles while in high school. None was any good though

I'm sure they all had a certain beauty to them!

We humans at our core really like simplicity.

Definitely.

nice! An artist with a drawing board is cool. Me being a businessman, I need to get a whiteboard to write some business and Steemit ideas

Chalk pens and a window- that's all you need!

Good idea! I'll consider the window an option :)

I doodle stars and trees, but I don't know why lol.

I get the tree doodling thing, I find it relaxing.

reminds me of something that would be printed on an ancient cave!

Maybe cave men liked to doodle!!

Its a mash up of all your art work, :)

Well yes, you can probably tell which drawing boards I've used for which work!

Its all good memories for you, nice to keep :)

They will probably get drawn over

That's a shame , you should keep them

simplicity is always where we go back to. NICE
