leaves ?

it was a day long training event, a couple of hundred of us in attendance, and only tepid water at the tables to serve as a distraction... really, what am i expected to do ?

cute little giant robot

cute little giant robot.

i think that it was probably time for a robot doodle.

this little fella was probably just a bit too cute for inclusion on the crush all humans blog.

maybe some screaming hourdes would've helped.

not so much a meeting doodle

not so much a meeting doodle, but rather a 'stuck on the 'phone for half an hour to 'customer services' doodle'.

i finally triumphed, i might add, but lord oh lord those call-centre monkeys are hard work.

...i was much more helpful when i was a call-centre monkey, i can promise you that !

some kind of tick i think

some kind of tick i think, or an alien, or a spider with a large head... i'm not really sure about the subject matter - but like all good unexpected spontaneous doodles, i like this one a lot.

and once again the feathering takes me back to the good ol' days of art school.

trick-or-treaters

trick-or-treaters marauding down the margin of my page !

now this was a funny one. ordinarily i know when the doodles will hit me, or i have a pretty good idea at least.

you know how it is - you're walking to a meeting that you know is going to last a few hours, with more than half a dozen invitees who enjoy the sound of their own voices more than they would that of their chosen diety calling down to them from on-high... you know you might squeeze out a few doodles today.

however, today i rush to a meeting of sorts with two others, close proximity and little chance to merge into the background and 'phase out' to scribble away quietly to myself. and yet several doodles still managed to appear.

at last, the doodler translated into jive !

doodle fast, and leave a beautiful copse

doodle fast, and leave a beautiful copse

...oh dear, and i think i'm funny.

try and tell yourself that my motivation for this doodle was anything other than the thought that "i've got a nice green highlighter back at my desk", and i'll laugh in your face like a crazy fool.

bold linear image

bold linear image, that's the best description i can come up with.

i can see a little aztec / sun god riff here, i can also see a little of a german expressionist who's work i've enjoyed; i guess i can even see a little image of a bold red sunset.

alien skull and medusa mask

alien skull and medusa mask, together at last.

as i may have mentioned in previous posts - a VERY dull training session.

these are both rather odd, though.

a cowboy bar of soap

a cowboy bar of soap

i mean, sure, it was a VERY dull training session - the facilitator desperately trying to engage the interest/enthusiasm of the singularly un-engaged group sitting across the room from her - but i ask you... a cowboy bar of soap ?

superhero vs tentacle creature

superhero vs tentacle creature

sufficed to say that this is one of a several doodles from a very VERY dull training session that i attended yesterday.

it might even be worth a click on the image to see the frustration in the penstrokes !!

a strange alien pod thingy

a strange alien pod thingy, i guess.

i do like the brightness of this one; like the image of the little guy in his yellow pod surrounded by/supported on red tendrils.

this might come up again.

merchandise alert !

merchandise alert !

check out the link to the right, snappily entitled 'Shop Meeting Doodler!'.

wear the doodles and spread the word !

and if you have any favourites that you'd like to see on there, or have any specific merchandise requests, then drop me a line and i'll see what i can do.

bovine alien abduction

bovine alien abduction

just a little corner doodle to amuse you for the short working week to come.

it's happened before, on those friday meetings, that my hand starts to produce an abduction scenario...

draw (no pun intended) your own conclusions !!!

a chalk outline

a chalk outline, looks like it's being investigated by a familiar looking fella with a kiss-curl.

i guess there's probably a connection with some residual image from the 'bruce wayne: murderer' comics, so apologies if i look like a plagiarist.

son of space squid

son of space squid !

yep, it's been a little while since we had a space squid - and a little rocket in peril too, to add to the drama of the piece.

with this much scribbling i think that the others around the table must've thought i was taking notes like crazy.

yeah... crazy like a fox !!!

pointy-headed uni-wheel guys

pointy-headed uni-wheel guys.

not sure where or why they came from, but i do like these fellas.

i have the usual friday meeting tomorrow, maybe we'll try a crowd scene ?

another floral affair

another floral affair, some little superheroes and an odd stripey crocodile.

just another day in the office.
