Ok, kids, sit up straight, don’t fidget, I’ll tell you about this A+ website. Full of extra-credit creative activities and exciting homework. And guess what? You’re more than welcome (moreover - encouraged!) to doodle on your notebook’s margins. Between the lines and all over the pages is fine too. Really!
Wondering why I all of a sudden sound like a 2nd grade teacher? Check out this incredibly fun and fresh project - Underground Art School:
There are super-talented teachers and students:

There’s SHOW-AND-TELL (on Flickr) and Passing of the Notes on Etsy:


Hell, I even like their sponsors And you can support them by buying the first issue of Underground Art School Magazine on MagCloud for mere $10.
And most importanly, there’s plenty of doodles to go around:


Enjoy. And here’s your homework:

Yey!!! I have some good news to report!

* I made my very first sale to a lovely lady who owns an AlliesAdornments shop which features super feminine, pretty and elegant antique… well… adornments of all kinds. I love the way she presents them on top of hand-colored old photos so they practically become part of it (click on the pictures to check them out up close and personal):

* I created my very first Treasury (on Etsy, it’s no small feat - a hand-picked collection of 12 products made by other Etsians. Great tool for promoting tons of incredibly talented artists that “make home” in the vibrant Etsy Community). Naturally, I picked some cool doodles to showcase in it. Go see it before it expires in a few hours:

* Last but not least, one of my pieces was featured in a booklet by Norm Lanier, the CraftyCoach who gives excellent advice to people who want to make a living by selling what they make with their own two hands

And if it’s not too much trouble, please feel free to Stumble, Digg and otherwise bookmark my DOODLAGE SHOP any way you’d like so the world could discover it quicker I’m ready for the fame and fortune, LOL

I already wrote about famous people’s doodles. Now, right after the rush of political campaigning that resulted in the historical election, even the canditates’ doodles made the news
You can read a story from Chicago Tribune about presiden-elect’s doodle that was sold at a charity auction some time ago:

Or watch a CNN video on the same topic (plus the professional graphologist’s analysis of Palin’s scribbles:

Hmm… I wander what John McCain was doodling

I don’t think I’ve ever been in a Nordstrom before (nothing personal, we just don’t have one where I live). But I like what they (with help from the wonderful photographer Ruven Afanador) did for one of their ad campaigns.
Check it out:

These five little doodle-cartoons from Steve on the theme of Inner Child made me giggle into my monitor today. I’m all for sharing, especially because Steve, in addition to not being addicted to coffee and running, is definitely addicted to doodling. Enjoy:

In her own words, Nikki Farquharson is left-handed, Scottish, lives in Sunny London. She loves words, lines, patterns, shapes and colours. And we love Nikki. You know why? Cause she doodles!!!
Don’t Stop Me:

If this is nerdy, Nikki, I want to be a nerd:

That’s right, don’t be lazy, Nikki, keep on doodling!
