Hello, my name is Richard Koehler,
and I'm a doodle addict. Frisco, Texas

I am a graphic designer by day but still feel the need to be creative so I paint, sketch or do quick doodles in pen and ink in my spare time. It's an exercise more to just let go, relax and just enjoy the the process and let the happy accidents happen. I'd love to hear your thoughts on my work, good or critical. Thanks for looking.

I specialize in doodling, illustration, painting, sketchbook, sketching, whimsical illustration.

After Inktober I thought I’d try out a daily logo challenge “Logovember” which isn’t easy with the holidays happening . Here is one of the ideas. Each design started with a simple doodle that I then created in Adobe Illustrator.

Today’s word was Ash. Pen and ink + watercolor.

Pen and ink + watercolor. 1.5-2 hours.

Day 7’s word “Enchanted”. Small quick doodle.

Day 5 word was build. Small 3x3 pen and ink drawing.

Day 3 - Bait. Pen and ink.

Pen and ink. 40-50 minutes

This armadillo is going big air on the road. Small 8 x 8 acrylic painting on wooden board

It's National Toasted Marshmallow Day so this painting seems fitting. What do you think will happen to this guy? About 14 x 14 inches, acrylic on wood board. Sorry not the best photograph.

The 'mallows are trying to escape the volcano's explosion of fire and lava. 11 x 14 acrylic on canvas board.
