Zen Doodle

I have been terribly unwell for the past one week. It all started on Sunday last week and am still recovering. Some terrible virus I suppose. I am on very strong meds which is only making me feel worse. Damn I never thought I'd say this-For how long can one sleep?Sleeping happily is possible.endlessly. But sleeping while coughing at in interval of every 5 seconds-not pleasant. And I couldn't talk. So had to do something when I was awake. Here is what I discovered:


This is just a random impatient doodle. But I must confess it was very relaxing and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and am definitely going to do more. I urge all of you to try atleast a small doodle. Let your creativity take full control of the situation. I will keep posting more because I am pretty sure am going to get better at it. I used a black marker to draw the intricate work and I coloured using my colour pencil set. I shall now show off my colours to you. Brother's gift you see :) 





This is not the new hobby that I spoke about in my previous post. That hobby is on an entirely different level :D Am so thrilled about that. You know what is the greatest thing about these doodles? The fact that you are in an almost meditative state while doing it.And effortlessly. In today's world where everybody is highly stressed out, this is a needed diversion. Please take some time off to relax and do some doodles and post it in the comments:) I would be happy to form a doodle club if a bunch of you are interested. We can doodle away :D No prior art experience required. All you need is a black marker. I use Camlin CD/DVD Marker Pen. It costs Rs.10. If you wish to colour, a basic colour pencil/crayon set will do too. Please do try!! :)
