Peter Hoh म्हणाले...: I see a chameleon emerging from the doodle, just above and to the right of the word "arbiter."

And what's with that pleated thing between "text" and "arbiter"? It's a lot like the doodle in the upper left of the previously posted "O'Connor" doodle. I'm tempted to see it as the part of the collar (or shoulder) on a robe where the pleats come together.; १६/९/०५, १०:१० AM
P_J म्हणाले...: I thought the thing above "arbiter" was some kind of bird, with a beak pointing to the right.

I also noted the repeated pattern from the O'Connor doodle. I often tend to repeat the same images in doodling. Do doodles vary a great deal, or do we come back to familiar themes?; १६/९/०५, १०:१६ AM
Peter Hoh म्हणाले...: Slightly below and to the right of "heart," I see a right hand extended, as if ready to shake another hand. And the arm appears to be robed.; १६/९/०५, १०:४६ AM
अनामित म्हणाले...: Come now, it's clearly indicative that she got Alpha-Bits cereal in her spaghetti. Or vice versa.; १६/९/०५, ११:२९ AM
amba म्हणाले...: I'm very struck by how similar doodles and the process of doodling are, even for very different individuals. The design elements may be different (e.g. mine tend to feature feet, wings, leaves, faces, and teardrops falling into pools), but there's such a similar tendency to put decorative borders around words, and to sort of fractally proliferate and web things. Cool.; १६/९/०५, १२:३२ PM
अनामित म्हणाले...: ann: technical question.. are you just scanning these pieces of paper into your computer. ?

Are you sketching on an electronic note pad of some sort?; १६/९/०५, २:०७ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Monty: Yes, I'm scanning an ordinary piece of paper.

Eddie: Click on the link for the full size copy and print it out. It will be virtually the same as the original (except that the original has printing on the back, so it will be kind of better, especially if you use quality paper). I've not a noncommercial creative commons license on it, so feel free to copy it and frame it for your longterm enjoyment.; १६/९/०५, २:१५ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Aidan: I went to art school. I've done more paintings than makes any sense.

Halo: My only drug was caffeine and the last molecules of last night's cognac. I'm not even on the Advil.; १६/९/०५, २:२० PM
Hoots म्हणाले...: I like your drawings. They remind me of Saul Steinberg's wonderful drawings. The Inspector (1973) was only ten bucks. What a treasure!; १६/९/०५, ८:०१ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Hoots: Thank you. The Inspector is one of my absolute favorites.; १६/९/०५, ८:३४ PM
