Everyday doodles of everyday objects

Posted on September 26, 2015 by cmkmarquis

Even though a simple sketch takes only a few minutes, I am well aware that my personality and busy schedule make committing to daily sketches a daunting task. A day skipped could easily stretch into weeks and months, until suddenly a year later I remember enjoying daily sketches and decide to take it up again.

I’d rather not have that happen, because I am enjoying them. I can’t promise daily blog posts (I’ve already failed there), but I do want to stick to daily doodles – or at least nearly daily doodles, which is the ridiculously cutesy name I’m using to refer to the project.

In addition to fighting the tired/busy/not in the mood to sketch excuses I may throw at myself in the months to come, I anticipate running up against the doodling equivalent of a full closet and “nothing to wear.” So I made myself a list of options, above, to post next to my desk. And for day 3, I picked an incredibly boring object as proof to myself that I will still post a boring sketch.
