Stained Glass Doodle

Quite a few people have told me that this looks like stained glass to them (or rather a doodle rendition of a stained glass window). To me it was fun to doodle, but filling a page takes a long time - quite a few hours. But any long work, once done, gives me a satisfaction that the less detailed ones do not. Let me know what you think.

Thunderbird

Some doodles are just more fun for me than others. I like the Haida style, though I've added my own flair. Maybe I should come up with a new term - "Holmaida", "Haidman", or some such. Or maybe I should leave well enough alone and just have fun with my doodles. Let me know what you think.

Flags-N-Starts Doodle #2

Here is the second doodle of flags and stars. You can see how similar it is to the first one, but I like it better, since the flags are not truncated. I made a 16" x 20" enlargement for my State Representative, and he really liked it. He is having it professionally framed to hang in his office at the capitol.

I hope that you will try one. I'd enjoy seeing your efforts.

Patriotic Doodle Dandy

I have been asked to do some patriotic doodles, so here is one of my first attempts. I didn't like cutting off part of a flag, so I re-did one very similar, but I still like this one as well. I'd like your thoughts on it.

Progress

I have made some progress! I now have items on display in one restaurant and at least one office in our state Capitol.

I have also made progress here, because I can post again! So I want to share one of my creations with you while I can.

I trust that you enjoy these and that they will inspire you to do some of your own.

Delay

Sorry about the long delay in posting. I have encountered a barrier, and I must now use a circuitous route to get things posted. I think we have developed a method, so I can get back to sharing things with you.

The term "web filter" meant nothing to me as a child (nor even as an adult until quite recently). In general, I think they are good things. I'll not complain about them, even though they crimp my style at the moment. To my children, they are just a normal part of life. They cannot remember when "web" only meant either what a spider does, or a trap that one person makes for another (with words, events, etc.).

Thanks for your patience.

Borders for Scripture and Letters

Somethimes I am compelled to take one drawing and turn it into a border that I can use for illuminated Scripture, but I also use them for love letters to my wife. On average I write her two letters a week, and having a pretty border makes it that much more meaningful to her.

I drew a large flower, and the contrast was pleasureable, so I repeated around the page.
