I’ve been resisting the whole zen doodling craze, not because I don’t like to doodle, but because I’m mad that I wasn’t the one who figured out how to make all that money from doodling. I mean, who knew? It sure wasn’t me!
Recently, though, I needed to make some ATC’s for a swap, and the theme for the swap was black and white, either in pen and ink or graphite. I was in the mood to do some ink work so I decided to break down and try some of that fancy doodling. Once I started, I just couldn’t stop. Just like it’s always been…even before it had a copyrighted name and fancy kits you can buy…doodling is relaxing and fun. Here are some of the designs I came up with:
They call them zentangles. I also did some of these doodles. I agree it is relaxing and fun!
I love your doodling!!!! I wsh I could do it. I can’t even think of things to draw, let alone draw them.
i really like the three flower ones!
don’t resist doodling, doodle more! haha.
I wasen’t able to find your email so i post it here:
Good day to you,
I am a paper cutter from Israel and I would like your permission to cut some of your doodles.
I found your blog after a doodle post here:

Hi Yael,
Your paper cutting is amazing! You have my permission to use the doodles I have posted in my “I’ve Caught the Doodle Bug” post, and I’d love to feature them here when you’ve finished them.

Thank you!
That is absolutely incredible work, Yael, very impressive! Now I want to try doing a paper cutting too.
