Day 520 – Road Runner
Don’t you sometimes feel like you are being run off your feet. Constantly chasing, never resting. I feel that way often. That’s probably where this guy stems from. He’s athletic, He’s on the go, but he looks like he can’t wait to make a dash for it.
People often ask me what’s the difference between a doodle and a drawing. The way I see it, is that a drawing or painting very often is thought out, planned. You kind of know what you want to create and have your color palette organized and away you go. A doodle on the other hand comes from the sub conscience and I hardly ever set out to draw something specific. I know that when I am drawing I am not so much focused on what I am creating, because I am listening and concentrating on what is happening around me. The doodle just flows from the back of my mind.
So what was I thinking as I drew this one. Maybe I was planning my escape, from a long and tedious meeting. I just had to get away and far away.
hence we have “the road runner”
