(For those who follow by e-mail, I accidentally published this without pictures. Oops. So, here's the finished product!)
I was an AP Art student in high school. It was honestly my favorite part of high school other than plays. We would go into the art studio and were given a space, an easel, and had an hour to create, paint, and just forget the world for a while. I don't have an hour anymore, or an art studio, but there are times that the "artiste" deep within can no longer be stifled. It resurfaces in unexpected places.
Sometimes for the kids' scripture memory verses, we sit on the couch, project the iPad onto the T.V. And I start doodling. You heard me. Doodling.
Sometimes, when I am feeling generous, I allow them to doodle as well.

And many, many, more examples than you care to see.
Happy Doodling.
