Doodle Fun...

Another fun thing that Jessica had us do for the Tablet class was to get used to just using the pen and the tablet by creating a huge sheet of 12x12 doodles. Love themed because of Valentine's Day, but otherwise we were free to just doodle away and getting used to the feel of the pen.

I have to admit that at first I wasn't going to bother doing it. It kinda felt a little "pointless"... like I "wouldn't learn anything". But then I told myself to stop being silly, stop (possibly) worrying what people would think about my doodles and focus on that every exercise was part of learning and would add up to what I got out of the class.

So I sat down with my tablet and pen and created a full 12x12 sheet of doodles. Of course, I think it's only natural, that you hate your own handwriting and you hate your own doodles, but I have "made" myself "be brave" and put it up here anyway. I just see it as another step for the class.

I love it - really.

I think that it's hard to be objective about your own stuff - something I definately struggle with too. But seriously - that's pretty cool!

I like it, it is natural to hate your own, when everyone thinks its great!
