Boring meeting
Drawing doodles help me concentrate on what is said at meetings, especially boring one, it’s definitely a form of meditation!

Lol, a notepad? :)
Glen Allen
why not. Van gogh sketched on anything he could find.

Leonardo Da Vinci too :) I work in Engineering, and when i studied it in france, he was our hero : he was multi talented…allying technique, science and art…. in french (aslo in Italian, spanish, german..), ingenieur comes from the word genius (hence leonardo!), but in English, Engineer comes from Engine, different ways of seeing things
Karin Taylor

Cvail73 replied

LostGod
such a beautiful style.
Cvail73 replied
Thanks lost boy! I’ve got some catching up to do with your work, but some of it has already disappeared.. the ephemeral quality of Lostboy’s art….

You didn’t sign any agreements that your company owns intellectual property did you? Would make an interesting case; maybe the words are IP but the doodle is . . . what? Artistic Property?
Para-Intellectual Property? Intellectualesqe Property?

Ah ah ah no i did not! that’s a good thing I suppose ;)
confidential info, should not leak that: the drawing (not the text) contains the meeting word for word.. Obviously crypted ;)
Jeff Palm Phot...
stunning work…maybe you should have more boring meetings!
Cvail73 replied

You are good!

I too use doodling as a means of concentrating and to prevent boredom (especially whilst watching tv). Not everybody appreciates it this way. Some people think it is a waste of time, but then so are a lot of meetings. Ha
Cvail73 replied
Yup, and some people think that you are distracted when you doodle in meetings. I am lucky to have colleagues who understand and know I’m listening!
KazM
Sure are lucky, once I had a boss complain about the waste of stationary.
He was a small pompous man with a mind to match glad your colleagues are more accepting
Cvail73 replied
They are all mad obsessed about pens too, lol, they are cool guys :))
KazM
I love the soft spongy finger holds on pens
as they are more gentle on my aging fingers.
Glad there are some cool guys around

Sight is important too unfortunately, and mine won’t last long, between shortsightedness and longsightedness looming.. Don’t feel alone!X

Hey, you should see my meeting notes. They look just like yours. Some may think I am not paying attention, but I actually pay better attention. I am in grad school and some of my class notes look like this, too. Thanks for posting.
Cvail73 replied
I want to see yours now! :)
When i was a student, my course notes were immaculate, lol, lots of little funny things on there too. They were quite popular (well, they were complete and very clear for people who had not attended too)
Pip Gerard
I completely agree… I’m a doodler big time!! Some of my best work came from a publishing meeting that went too long … or especially at all day conferences!! :)
Cvail73 replied
yay a fellow doodler!! But where are your doodles? I love watching doodles too! :)
Did you check out the Doodle Doo group? very funky :)
Pip Gerard
I’ll have to go and hunt down all my conference books and exercise books to find my doodles. :)
Some of my work in my PF started out as doodles that grew… for instance centre out and flutter-by butterfly
Pip Gerard
Doodles are my form of meditation. I honestly know it’s a meditation for me… I find it sooo relaxing.
Cvail73 replied
Yup, same here :D
