Doodles and Postcards

This week I have been playing in my sketchbook. Lots of watercolor doodles. And I've been using copies of paintings and things I've done this year and making postcards. Always building up the mail art stash!

This girl is one I did in my egg tempura painting class a few months ago. I printed a 4x6 image and started layering on paint and things.


This is the head and shoulders from a doll I made last year. I plopped her into my felted vessels and kinda liked the picture. Mounted it and dabbed some blue paint along the edges. Instant postcard.


I love doing these watercolor doodles and seeing what comes out.


A doodle in my art journal.


Little sea creature doodle.

How many times did I just use the word doodle? Ha!

I was just over at Pipi La La and found out from Michele about this wonderful mail art project at  Tim's Sally. Mindy is doing a wondeful exchange! Looks like a lot of fun! Check it out!

Watercolor has never been one of my strengths, so the word doodle fits me very well. I especially love your third one, so lovely.
