Art I Don't Have to Sell

2 years ago I stopped painting and started "Doodling." I was frustrated with making artwork I felt that I HAD to at least try to sell. It was liberating to draw and not feel that pressure. So I called my doodles "Art I Don't Have to Sell." Even started a blog about it. (that I didn't keep up) Art I Don't Have to Sell Blog

Oddly these doodles turned into my first coloring book, "Strange Designs." So surprise surprise! I DID sell that art. I guess if there is a moral to this story it's that sometimes when you give up and just work from the heart that's when the magic can happen.

Here is one of my early doodles.  Obviously didn't know it was for a coloring book since I colored part of it in.
