Joyce Cole Hello, my name is Joyce Cole,
and I'm a doodle addict.
Pontiac, Illinois, USA

I love to draw, and have been doing it since before I can remember. I own a little museum shop called Home Again on Route 66 at the Illinois Route 66 Association Museum in Pontiac, Illinois. I love to travel...and try to keep a journal as I go. I'd love to go on the road with a tiny camper and travel the whole country. Maybe I will!

FOLLOW

I specialize in illustration, mixed media art, route 66 artwork, travel journaling, wonky sketches.

Doodled Aprons
1/2

Doodled on some aprons I made to sell at the shop. Doodling makes everything better! They sold right away!

Route 66 Travel Journal Page

This page includes a sketch I made pulled over on the road near Pontiac, IL, a shield I stamped using a stamp I carved (pretty crude , but still works!), and some stickers I had made of sketches of other things in the area.

Monoprinted Cards

Last year I made many of these cards to sell at my shop. They are each monoprinted, so they are all different. Then I used a stamp I carved and doodled while watching binging on Criminal Minds.

Chicago

This is a canvas made with a page from my Route 66 travel journal. As I was creating this, the Cubs won the World Series, so I had to add the hat...we'd waited a long time to see those hats on the lions.

Art Car
1/5

Public art show "Cruisin the Square" for our town, Pontiac, IL. Local artists were given a fiberglass car or truck to alter as they wished. I turned mine into what might happen if I journaled on my car as I traveled Route 66.

Puna Road

Just a page trying to depict the rainforest and road. I got lost in trying to draw the vegetation. I felt frustrated about this drawing at the time, but now I like it.

Ahalanui Park
1/3

A beautiful pool by the ocean...it's warmed by the volcano through the earth. However now it is in the path of the recent flow. It's a special place.

Pohoiki, Big Island of Hawaii
1/2

My mind is on Puna so much lately. I love Hawaii...was born there and rediscovered it as an adult. I stay in Puna area when I go, in little houses I rent, or once, housesitting for a friend. This drawing was made one day when Mom and Dad and I went to Pohoiki to sketch. This little cottage and park is in the path of the flow and may already be gone. You can no longer drive there as the roads have been cut off by the lava flow. My heart goes out to all Hawaii residents dealing with this massive lava flow, and the VOG that goes with it. There might be a few weird reflections in this as I had to take a pic of it on my screen to get a file large enough....I gave the original to a friend who lives near the park.

Where to go....

Love this little Seuss quote. I wear Chucks a lot, and have a habit of taking pics of them in the places I go....hence this drawing.

One of those days....

Ever have one of those days when you want to pull your hair out? Here it is in black and white! I was experimenting with white ink in a journal with black pages.

Beginning of my Route 66 Journal

I started keeping a Route 66 Journal when I traveled from Chicago to Albuquerque. I keep adding to it all along and hope to go from Albuquerque to LA this fall.

Bob Waldmires Converted Bus

This is the converted school bus that belonged to Route 66 super sketcher Bob Waldmire (RIP). It's here at our museum, so I sketched it one day. It's an amazing studio/home on wheels!!
