Interactive Art Project
This project ran from Fall 2023 through Summer 2024. It's aim was to help us have fun, create together, have shared artistic expression, share art with other artists and to create art in community.
The PDFs remain available in this archive for those who might want to participate. You are invited to color, collage, write on, add your own doodle, make new art, or use as inspiration for your own work.
ABC Doodle Series: Summer
Ask: Can you turn a doodle into a drawing?
Following the movement and creativity within each doodle, trace the emotion that moves in you and use that to shape your drawing.
Face & Found
Be teased to follow the letters around the eyes, then go look at the lower lip and see if there isn't something you can change.
More Faces
The big face looks like he is bothered, he's not happy. Next to him is DF and he is smiling, AB has a tight collar and a tie. The one next to him doesn't have any restrictions, WXYZ shows openness, freedom, plenty of air, and no restrictions. What can you do to change AB's mood?
Twist & Turn
A cactus that has brought its sharp pieces into the inside of itself. Each part is round, the smoothness of the surface on the outside looks like love and synergy.
Impossibly Busy
A glass dome over your conservatory, over your home space. The curves of the waves are playful and seems to direct the eye to where the circles are.

My ABC Doodle Series
This series of ABC doodles are full of movement, expression, letters and shape, they are themed with roller-coasters and alphabet letters. I am sharing these images as a part of an ongoing interactive series I hope you will join me in. Each image is available for download so you can add your own unique touch to it. Ideas include; color them in, write on them, add doodles of your own, or use them as a template for your own artistic creation. My challenge for you is to color each letter in from A - Z, and to find the hidden roller-coaster in each image. Where you cannot find one, add your own! When your doodling is complete take a photo or scan it and send it back to me.
I hope you will get playful and creative in this project. I welcome your observations, your playing, and your connection to these doodles!
