Concerts are a lovely time to doodle. At a recent one I sketched this take on the velveteen rabbit.

Here is another picture from a sketchbook. Used a sharpie marker, white gouache, and a bit of photoshop.

Here are two cats that have recently appeared on my website. Doodling with a ballpoint pen is an amazing activity. I sometimes feel a little frightened when starting a new piece, and the more money I have invested in the materials, the more I'll procrastinate. When you have these wonderful materials to work with, it can be easy to lose sight of the fact that the magic is not in the materials, the magic is in the artist. So it is a lovely thing to pick up a regular ol' ball point pen and let it go. So free! So easy!
