Black & White Doodles are my favorites

I’ve been spending way too much time doodling this winter. In addition to not wanting to go outside much, hubby had his knee replaced so plenty of time between nursing tasks (and household tasks he can’t do for a bit). I’m also a news junkie and with the current state of affairs, having my doodle pad in my lap helps me avoid throwing something at the TV.

Here are a few new doodles:

Wendydoodle #38
I tried using a little wider pen size on this one. I think he’s watching me 😉
Wendydoodle #37
This is using the smallest “gel pen” size on ProCreate. I like the finer detailing.
Wendydoodle #35
Another with the finer size pen but more black filled in. Apparently my brain likes to create fantasy creatures.

Coloring is harder than it looks!

I’ve discovered that I LOVE doodling. But working in black and white is quite a bit different than in color. At least in this instance.

So far, I had just colored my title (cover) doodles with colored pencils and tried one full doodle (see below). I’ve long been in love with pencils.  I  like how they can be fine point, broad point and can be shaded easily. But I decided I wanted some deeper, more intense colors — which only comes with markers.

A quick stop at Target for a beginners’ set of washable markers began my adventure in coloring. I chose one of my favorite doodles. I’ll be coloring more but definitely need a lot more colors!

Here’s my first go with markers:
