    Doodlemum you deserve to be in a national newspaper, to have a publishing deal and a gold medal for not only being a great Mum but for drawing everyday and sharing the fun with us all.

    I can’t get over have brilliantly you capture snapshots of your daily delights! Fan-bl**dy-tastic!

    And thank you – your drawings make me smile everyday and inspire me to draw (and maybe, just maybe , one day have a kiddie or two myself!)

      Thank you, my head is so big now I’ve bumped it on the ceiling…..;P a drawing a day keeps the insanity at bay…keep drawing!!!!!!
      And as for having kids, GO ON, GO ON, GO ON, GO ON…look at what it did to me….what’s that? Myles says I’m still as annoying but with more hormones and less dress sense. x
      Keep reading and tell everyone!

    Hey Doodlemum … don’t suppose you’re interested in illustrating a children’s book? My first is being published shortly, with the second due out later in the year. I have another two already written which I’ll eventually need an illustrator for. Love your work!!! You can check me out either at my Deep Fried Fruit blog, or at my author website http://www.LeanneSheaLangdown.com

    Happy Tuesday!!!

    I only came across your blog just over a week ago and has since subscribed to it. But I just can’t help but love your drawings. There is such a child-friendly, sort of innocent feeling to them and always reminds me of reading books when I was a kid. I, myself am studying illustration at university and your works have really inspired me to record such daily events.

    Reply
    • Doodlemum | March 31, 2011 at 8:31 am

      Oh wow! Well thank you very much! That’s lovely to hear you like my drawings! Every day doodles keep the ideas flowing…I did Illustration at University and found it a mixed experience to be honest with you. Draw influence from anything and everything and keep drawing. There is too little of it these days. I think with my blog though I’m making up for it..;)

    A breath of fresh air amidst the myriad of ‘mummy’ blogs that all seem to do/say/write the same things.
    Pointed in your direction by Heather at Note from Lapland, and so glad I stopped by! You make my doodles look decidedly amateur, but I’ll just let that wash over my wetsuit ;-)

    Lovely.

    Hello and thank you for your lovely comments!! Just to add to the many above – this is such a wonderful blog, I’ve been having loads of fun going through looking at all the excellent drawings!

    I saw you studied Illustration, and was wondering if I could ask you about your experience with that – I studied Chinese, which I enjoyed a lot, but I’ve come to realise drawing is really what I want to do all day long. So I still wonder whether I should study illustration after all. Any wisdom or light you could shed on studying/having studied illustration would be brilliant, if you have time!
    Thanks (also for sharing your drawings!), x x Bea

    Hi Doodlemum, I’m a recent convert to your blog and I just thought I’d say how much I’m enjoying it, I have a look every morning and they always make me chuckle! I’ve got no babies of my own but I’m the oldest of three and a lot of what your small ones do reminds me so much of when we were all kids :)
    Thanks for brightening up my day,

    Hi Doodlemum! A friend led me to your blog a few months ago and I’ve been hooked ever since! I adore your doodles! You have such a wonderful talent, and such a cute family. :) My husband is from Wales, very near Swansea, so it is fun to see your references and “hear” your accent.
    Would you mind if I linked to you on my blog? I would love to feature your work, and your love for art. And I agree with the many before me – illustrate a book! It would be a huge success! :)
    Sincerely, Bonnie

    Yes I know… I thought you’d like it… I have a WACOM Intuos 2 tablet myself… working in photoshop and painter…. but I am more comfortable in the digital domain I guess really. You, however, seem far more at ease with real world materials… so when I came across the delightfully named “Wacom Inkling” today on another blog… I immediately thought… OOOH I know who might be interested in this little hoo ha! :D

    I have to say… I think it looks brilliant too… quite new apparently… not for sale until the end of September though… but not going to be as wildly expensive as their tablets so… could be a winner? xxxxx

    Reply
    • Doodlemum | August 31, 2011 at 7:36 am

      Hopefully it will be, there’s a few artists I know that bring tablets and along to life drawing and they get smashing results. It is down to money but I guess with all technology it does get cheaper eventually so I’m sure I’ll get a go!
