This doodle is named for what it's painted on. I had a theory that Cheerio box cardboard would take well to watercolors, and I was right! This is an odd one on products, but I do have it uploaded on Redbubble, Society6, Zazzle, and Threadless. Try this link if you're curious to see: https://linktr.ee/okhismakingart

I really,really hate having an art block because most of the times you have several drawing ideas,only to have trouble choosing one and not drawing anything at all!The strawberry one has no face because it was either ripped out or eaten.I originally wanted to draw four Gucci logos with different fruits,but since having an art block ruined it,I made this.I might take a break from drawing for,I don't know,10,000 years or so.
Malik straining to keep the twisting pose. Decided to leave this one as a slightly rough red Bic pen sketch for now. There’s something to be said about the energy found in the work-up drawing.
Needing to get out of the house, I walked down the street to the antique shops that are right around the corner from my house and did some urban sketching.
