Poll #3 Results: Do Doodle that Doodle that you Doodle So Well
Doodling is one of those things that proves that art is in the DNA– it’s a way of understanding, processing, and expressing. So what do YOU doodle when you doodle? We offered five categories in the poll, as well as an “other” category. Respondents were allowed to tick off as many categories as appropriate. Here are the results:
67% of respondents doodle Letters, Lines, and Shapes
50% doodle People and Figures, other than themselves
34% doodle themselves– Self Portraits
17% doodle Plants and/or Animals
and in the “Other” category?… Food!
The Art That Breaks Silence
David Schwartz of We Are Lions– “A community that makes art into clothing and clothing into art. Raising money for incredible artists with and without disabilities and great organizations”– gives a TEDx talk about how imperfections great and small, whether labeled as a disability or not, are the shared traits that make us gloriously human.

Last Friday, we asked what your canvas preferences were– pre-stretched canvas, canvas panel, or stretch-your-own. Here is a link to today’s opinion poll, which asks about your FAVORITE ARTIST.
