In today’s live Doodlecam, I demonstrate Creative Sandbox Way™ Guidepost #7: Take the riskier path. When you get to the place where your piece isn’t done yet, but you’re afraid to add to it, because you’re afraid you might ruin it, what to do? Instead of shelving it and never finishing it, do the scary thing! What’s the worst that will happen? You’ll learn something! After all, it’s just a piece of paper! We’re playing in the creative sandbox, folks! Think process, not product! (That’s Guidepost #2. 😊)

Today’s doodle, which you can watch me draw from a blank page in today’s Story, or in my IGTV channel, because I captured it all on Doodlecam! 😄 The whole thing took under 10 minutes.
🖍
Why do I doodle live on Doodlecam? To show you that anyone can do this! And to reveal what’s going on inside my mind as I draw. Gremlins and all! Yes, I have gremlins, too! They are very loud and nasty. They reason I’m able to make art is I’ve learned to dance with them. I’ve learned to *recognize* the gremlins for what they are, thank them for their concern, send them off to get pedicures, and KEEP RIGHT ON GOING! The gremlins never go away; we just need to learn to manage them. 😊

I drew this doodle live on Doodlecam. It’s been awhile since I’ve done a live Doodlecam, but last Saturday someone was mentioning to me how much she enjoyed them, and that they inspired her to think about picking up a pen herself. That inspired *me* to set up my phone today so I could do a Doodlecam. 🖍
We don’t know how we touch each other. That thing you’re thinking about someone else’s work, about how it affects you, about what it means to you? If you never actually tell them, they’ll never know. But if you take the time to tell them, it might just make their day. It might even change something for them—maybe something small, maybe something big. Maybe a small thing that ripples out. Maybe the tiny action YOU take leads to a tiny action that THEY take, which leads to a tiny action on SOMEONE ELSE’S part, that leads someone else to take a tiny action, and so on, and so on…
🖍
We never know how we touch people. All we know is that we do. 🖍
Let people know how they have touched you. The world will be a better place, and your small action will ripple out.

Morning doodle before heading up to lead a presentation skills workshop for Uber. We’ll be playing with LEGO(r) and improv games all afternoon, but I still gotta get a little creative sandbox playtime in! 😊
