Today I ate the last two slices of bread we had left in the freezer, such a shame!

As tribute to them, today's doodle is combination of both food and relationship education (you can't say I never spoil you).

I'm going away this weekend to enjoy the further reaches of my county and spend some down time with my amazing girly and some good friends! Happy times, board games, good food and hopefully decent weather!

And if you happen to be having a bit of an off day, losing a bit of hope, I'll leave you with this quote:

"If they can make penicillin out of mouldy bread, 

they can sure make something out of you." Muhammad Ali

Have fun out there peeps!

The Moon and the Stars

It's daytime still!
So here' a picture of the sky in the middle of the night! Of course!

Well actually I was planning on posting this one up yesterday evening, but the laws of sod had their little way and I ended up sat on the sofa unconscious with a migraine. Blech!

I was inspired to do this after a rather lovely experience I had two nights ago. I could see a glare through the gap in my front room curtains, so i went to see what it was and to my surprise it was a glorious crescent moon, not the headlights of a taxi which was dazzling the left field of my vision from the sofa!

What a lovely surprise!
And also what a fantastic little experiment with lighting and gradient usage!

Anyway, lots to do! So...see you later!

Rawr...

Now...
I know that not much of the recent content I've posted up on here can really be classed as "doodles", so I aimed to rectify that today by drawing a wee monster using only some basic brushing techniques, and minimal production/effects.

He only took me a couple of minutes and you know what, I love this little guy! I think I'm going to call him Rawr... (the dots are part of the name, don't miss them out or you'll offend him!)

I've got a lot of work on at the moment, which is brilliant! but it does mean that the doodle flow has been somewhat slower. Perhaps I should keep on doing things like this? Hmmm....

In other Doodlenews, it appears that I may be starting on animation at college tonight!!! I'm buzzing at the thought of the insane things I might be able to dream up with that particular skill under my belt (what an odd phrase).

Anyway! New week, new fun!
Peace love n' Pixels to you all!

Mr Bean! (No not that one!)

This morning I decided to write a poem, it went like this:

Forever shall I be in awe,

When dark recedes from new-days shore,

What titillates olfaction pure?

'Tis from the morning ground.

Such heaven in the lavish sound,

As downpour freshens earthen mound,

Each drop upon its great rebound...

Makes King of mornings aptly crowned!

 I asked my friends and family on Facebook to see if they could guess what I was on about.
My mum answered correctly, and so for no apparent reason, I decided to go and draw a classy coffee bean as a gesture of my appreciation for those who took the time to read my work!

Once again, thank you all very much! You make me feel rather wonderful!

I've had a lot of work to do recently which is why I haven't been doodling much, but I hope to rectify this as I will soon be starting to write a book (which is a children's book and therefore mainly made up of pictures).

For now, i bid thee farewell, and I hope that you all have the BEST of weekends!

Caffeine infused wishes,
Your pal Nick!
