I am an obsessive doodler. I am full of anxiety. My brain never stops. The process of creating is way more important to me than the final product. In fact, I often draw for hours, only to throw it all away when I am done (But I am working on that). I do not plan out what I am going to draw or have any idea what it will look like until I am finished. I start out by making lines and marks on the paper. Sometimes I start with squiggly lines, sometimes I start with a coffee stain, and I just play and experiment with different materials and see how the lines, shapes, textures, and colors start to form themselves into creatures and environments. I am a teacher at a very cool and innovative high school in Providence, RI. I work with some amazing kids that teach me just as much as I teach them. I doodle as much as possible.
