I beleive art is healing.when I draw I relax. I'm happy when a doodle is finished.Then I start a new one.no frustrations.this active relax recently is my main summer "spare-time"activity.Just pencils and paper.Taken everywhere.

17 If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, 18 do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. 
Thank you God for loving us!Thank you for your work!

intuitive...

hi,
i'm in painting cats and some intuitive doodlings-well as most of my doodles  just following the lines and guessing shapes-many times i just fill the urge to doodle quick spontaneous lines and circles where ever i find a white spot, while speaking on phone or relaxing instead of tv.i didn't knew that this method can lead to an art form called intuitive drawing or art nuveau.i don't master layers but i do like to ""plain" doodle...i have found somebody on the net years ago ,maybe 3-4 y ago ,who's works are spectacular and the days before i was inspired to run freely with the colors and marker on watercolor paper instead of paper edges inspired by her work.Her name is Paivi Eerola and her blog http://www.peonyandparakeet.com/  i really love her work!!!

so just follow your heart.............and doodle,pray,paint,draw,sing,dance.....ildi

my lately doodles


hello friends,
glad you're still here...i was quite active despite the quiet settled here.a new ideea poped in my mind when i gived away two of my latest recycled paper earrings and since there the idea fructified and i got a lot of benefits of it -yes even sold a few ones but here i'm talking more about the joy of the creation ,about the process.i was combining two useful things-one giving a new chance to used cardboards and second to draw.
 here are the unique upcycled gift tags that will surely not be thrown away soon...i've got so many positive feed back that lately my face radiates joy and people have noticed that.somethimes indeed it needs so little to feel happy dispite all grey clouds that are covering the sun sometimes in everyones life.

mirror doodle and tribal earring

yes i've turned to my old fav...mirror doodling.you never know where to stop unless you reach the notebook border,lol...it's growing like a fungus and eating all whites of paper.
also finished a tribal earring with acrylics.i thought it would be easy the painting part..no way it took very loong,much longer i supposed to take but i liked to be focused and try to find the opportune moment to trace a line while my 33 weeks baby boy is kicking my belly left-right up and down.....





see you.........

inspired Monday

Monday morning i visited a friends site, Tatiana (paper mache and zentangle artist) and  the whole day stood under the spell of getting on with some doodles.Sunday evening i painted a few paper beads,just a few then a white rock from our seaside vacation was brought by my eldest son in front of my nose,desk.as a bit of paint remained on my brush i just spotted the rock and leaved up to Monday,when charged with good doodle karma i started to play with the pink dots.
when it was ready i found an old piece of paper clay cookie form and continued the doodles.then a coiled and well sanded paper piece and other bits appeared from my magic box and here the results:painted rocks and doodle brooches,some of them will be available in my shop later.
