Today’s doodle, done live on Doodlecam (watch it in my Instagram Story for the next 24 hours, or see an edited version in my IGTV channel). I had today’s Inktober prompt, “cruel,” in mind when I started, but it quickly flew out of my head… Though I did talk a lot about gremlins! And they can certainly be cruel, keeping us from our creative joy the way they do. So perhaps that counts. 😉

Today’s doodle, made on live, streaming Doodlecam, here on Instagram Live! Watch it on my Instagram Story, or on my Instagram TV. 🖍
This one was a 7-minute doodle, made in the creative sandbox—that mindspace of thinking process, not process, where there is no wrong, where your inner 4-year-old runs the show, NOT your gremlins! 🖍
Anytime we spend in the creative sandbox is precious. Which happens to be today’s Inktober prompt. 😊 So what are you waiting for? Go get creating! Even just 7 minutes can lift your whole mood!
🖍
And stay tuned for how you can join me for a FREE 2-hour Virtual Playday on November 17! I’ll be celebrating my birthday by opening up my studio and inviting you to come create with me for two hours. Watch me make art and share my process; create alongside me; ask questions about anything you want. Two hours to PLAY together!
🖍
In the meantime, if you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area, join me this Sunday for Etz Chayim Creative Sandbox Playday in Palo Alto! 10am-2:30pm. Link in profile or http://bit.ly/2NWuyAa Come create together!

I did another Instagram Live Doodlecam this morning, and I even managed to incorporate the Inktober prompt, “drool,” into my abstract, improvisational doodle! You can watch the whole thing in my Instagram Story for the next 22 hours or so. 😊

Getting into a state of flow is easier when you’re in the Creative Sandbox—that mindspace of being a 4-year-old, where it’s all about the joy of the process, not about trying to impress anyone, or make money, or win awards, or get into a show. It’s as if someone cast a SPELL on you!
A good spell, that makes you feel warm and fuzzy and buzzy and light, like you’re floating 2 inches off the ground, and could take on the world!
🖍
That’s how I felt making this little doodle on a live-streamed Doodlecam today, here on Instagram! I shared exactly what was going through my head, each step of the way. Check it out in my Story. .

Happy hump day! Doodlebot got a little creating in, which is always a mood elevator, even if you’re feeling roasted from too much work the day before. .

People think that Doodlebot is always surrounded by cool stuff because Doodlebot is more creative than the average person. Not true! Doodlebot simply practices Creative Sandbox Way™ principles. 🖍
Creativity is not some unique talent that some people are born with and others aren’t. It’s a muscle that EVERYONE has, that you strengthen with use. 🖍
The more you create, the more you create. So what will you create today?
