Melissa Doodle

Artist Melissa Langer is one of the most inspiring people I know. Not only does she create every day, she is constantly pushing the boundaries of her artistic experiences — trying new mediums, experimenting, taking classes. She is a crafty dynamo. Last week she posted some blind doodles on her blog and asked her readers to give it a try. Close your eyes, visualize, and don’t lift your pencil. This week she posted a gallery of them on her blog. They are so charming and wonderful. Stop by and take a look and then try one yourself.

P.S. One of her readers, Sharon Pope, started calling them Melissa Doodles. And I think it’s about time Melissa had a technique named after her, so that’s what I call them now too. Sweet!

Melissa rocks. I was fortunate to get to meet her in CO. last fall. She is amazing… constant centered creativity. The keyword there is “centered”. She is a total workaholic and yet when you meet her you are left with a sense of calm as though she sits all day and watches her garden grow. I dunno how the heck she does it. She is an inspiration for sure. I can be a working dynamo however never with the grace and ease she exhibits.

Thanks Moira! I love the title of your post. 🙂 I hope that Melissa doesn’t mind us calling them Melissa doodles. LOL They are so much fun to do and you’re right. She does need a technique named after her. 🙂
