New Free Pandemic 2020 Coloring Page!
Print, Color, Share
I'm seeing pictures of snow on posts from people in Maine and Colorado, but down here in Georgia, it is about 70 degrees and the flowers in my garden are popping up. I realize that while you are staying in, you may not be able to actually stop and smell the flowers, but my point is that we could all take a moment to stop stressing and appreciate what we have. Maybe you have your spouse or your children or your pet with you. Hopefully you have shelter and food (even if you are trying to create meals with 1 left over hot dog bun, instant oatmeal, and a slice of bacon from the back of the freezer). If you are feeling anxious about the pandemic or the news of the pandemic, take a moment to close your eyes, breathe, enjoy a warm mug of hot cocoa or tea and think of things that calm you. We are all in this together. 

If you are enjoying my coloring pages and would like to check out more of my art. My Etsy shop is called Doodling Rocks and has my hand lettered designs on shirts, hoodies, hats, mugs, bags, and more.

DOODLE DAY MAY - SUMMARY POST

The DOODLE DAY MAY drawing challenge is finished but I have and will continue to create a daily doodle and post as many as I can on my blog, Facebook page, or in the Doodle Day May Facebook group along with links, interviews, contests, illustrations, news, videos, etc...

During the DOODLE DAY MAY challenge, I created several doodles each day and almost filled an entire brand new sketchbook. Below, I have posted just some of those doodle from each day to summarize my month.

If you would like to order a t-shirt or baseball hat for yourself or your child who participated, go to the Café Press store for Doodle Day May.

There were 64 adult participants and at least 10 children doodling along in the Doodle Day May challenge. These participants included artists, writers, teachers, parents, children, friends, and friends of friends. The group continues to be a productive, supportive environment where members can post their doodles, ask questions about technique and media, post links to artists, videos, blogs, books, announce art classes or ask for class or media or technique suggestions, etc...

Look for a Character-a-Day Challenge (not sure what I'll call it yet) in late August or early September that will last a week (or possibly two).

I hope you will keep checking back to my blog for Story Starters, Doodles, Interviews, Announcements, Tips, etc...

Remember to keep doodling and have fun! Don't overthink it. Just put your pencil to the paper and see where it goes.
