Drawing Dump from Hurricane Helene and Milton

 


Way back on Sept 25, 2024, the day before Helene side swiped us and crushed Georgia, Linda Chapman had a birthday, and I fell in love with the little planter that someone mailed her, she doesn't know who, and I don't either. I saved the photo because I felt the desire to draw it. I did not like what I drew, and it sat until today in the failed folder.


I painted this on iPad and gave up and called it a fail, 3 day power outage and saved it and forgot about it until now. I stumbled on it today, 11/4 and popped it into my beloved PicMonkey and this is how it ended. For you my dear Friend Linda, because I forgot your birthday.

Happy Belated Birthday, and thanks for being a friend since 2009 and us Virgo's need to stick together. This is Tabitha in case you can't recognize her.


 


The reason for the Santa Doodle. I started playing with the red brush, then I added green, and thought wow, this would make good wrapping paper. Next I doodled Santa and HO HO HO, this is what happened. remember, I was bored silly in a house without power..

Below are my
Cockamamie Doodle Do's, no copy cat doodles here, just from my Mad Mind

It’s not a fail at all. It’s just transition on the way to perfection.

I like them all. I don’t know if I could do as well as you. Very creative!

I do not think any of those are failures. I can't believe you have a failure file. You did good. I am friends with Linda too. You are very creative.

Your doodles are fabulous - I love the ATTITUDE of the character in the last one.

Your "doodles" are so cute! And fun. I like the copy of the planter. Doesn't look like a fail to me. Very well done.
I do hope we're done with the storms for awhile. This bunch wore me slap out.
Love ya.

A drawing is only a fail if you don’t do it!

You did a good job on the second planter. Enjoyed all of them. I like how you kept busy.
