Ok, 'fess up. WHO ELSE SEES FACES IN THIER YOGURT-COVERED RAISINS??
I love creating found object doodles and post them on Instagram, "Found Object Art" gallery on Flickr, Pinterest, Tumblr and in my Found Object Art portfolio.
This #inktober drawing turned out much darker than I originally intended, but perhaps that's not a bad thing. Did the original ink drawing with a Pentel Pocket Brush but then took a photo and added some real-life textures digitally.
It was meant to be a quick sketch and I'm already noticing all kinds of things I'd fix in a revised version if this was going in a book. :-)
On the subway: noticed a little Asian girl in a stroller staring in fascination at my illustrated WHERE ARE MY BOOKS? tote bag while her mom was texting. Sadly, didn't have my book with me, else I'd have read it to her. Instead, I did this quick #inktober sketch of her and, just before I got off at my stop, presented the little girl and her mom with the sketch and a bookmark. They both seemed delighted.
p.s. The bookmarks are available as a free print-ready PDF template at http://debbieohi.com/read
