{doodles inspired by my vintage blouses}
Today's Doodles Unleashed online book tour stop is with my lovely and sweet friend, Mindy Lacefield over at Timssally. The wonderful world of the internet introduced me to Mindy, then we met in person at Art Unraveled last year. We spent a day exploring thrift shops and had a fun shopping adventure along with our other art pal Danielle in Phoenix.
Thrifting and antiquing are my favorite things to do, especially when I'm traveling. I'm always on the hunt for unique treasures and colorful patterns.
My vintage blouse collection is not only my fashionista wear but often becomes inspiration in my artwork. Here's a little peek inside my closet...the blouses were used to inspire the doodle in my painting above. Today, I share a chapter snippet from Doodles Unleashed and creative doodle prompts about vintage fabric inspiration.

So hop on over to Mindy's blog to check out her artwork and new Paint your Story e-course and my guest post! Mindy's artwork is colorful and fresh, I love her whimsical mixed media paintings. Here's a digital piece she designed inspired by the Digital Art Journaling section in my book. Thanks Mindy for sharing your enthusiastic and beautiful creative soul! :)

Mindy sent over this fun doodle and prompt...
Draw symbols that you frequently drew as a child... {was it rainbows and houses or was it junk food and candy...?} Have fun remembering and creating from the mind of your 7-year old self.
