I have been playing with Scribbles since I was a kid. I wielded them like a lasso and, similar to Green Lantern, depending on what my needs were, they transformed into any object I could imagine. I guess some things never change!
Did you know Florence Cane came up with the idea of the 'Scribble Technique' and would encourage children who were daunted by the white expanse of a new canvas to simply scribble to begin a new project?
From that mass of lines she encouraged the students to bring the resemblances forward.
About the same time, Austin Osman Spare was utilizing automatic drawing - a technique very similar to Florence Cane's but tied more into the idea of mysticism.
These ideas made it down from teacher to student decade over decade and I was introduced to it as a child by an art teacher as well.
DM me if you would like a one-of-a-kind commission in which you scribble and then I find and color-in the images that are hidden within.
