Improve your personality with doodle art

18 September, 2012

A doodle is a type of scribble, sketch or drawing made while a person's attention is otherwise occupied with some other activity. In other words, doodling is an unconscious or unfocused drawing made while a person is finding it hard to concentrate on the on-going activity.

DOODLES CAN be converted into art work by decorating their inner and outer portion with different patterns into its various segments with representational meaning or abstractness.

One can find students doodling in their notebooks, often in the margins, while daydreaming or losing interest during class. For some adults doodling during long telephone conversations, a pen and paper could be handy.

Popular kinds of doodles include cartoon versions of teachers or companions in a school, famous TV or comic characters, invented fictional beings, landscapes, geometric shapes, textures, banners with legends, and animations made by drawing a scene sequence in various pages of a book or notebook.

For producing a doodle art, proceed as follows.

- Doodle on a sheet of paper with a sketch pen.

- Divide various portions of the doodle into segments with straight lines.

- Use different kinds of lines, straight, wavy, kinky, zigzag, swirls, etc., to fill different portions of the doodle.

- Practice a bit of doodle art every now and then to become an abstract artist.

Many studies in applied cognitive psychology suggest that doodle art helps a person's imagination, aesthetics, creativity and memory significantly.
