Abstract Designs: A Coloring Book For Adults

Doodling and drawing have been my hobbies since I outgrew coloring books. After receiving a bachelor's degree in English Literature from the University of Chicago, I went to work as a secretary and began serious doodling again in 1970, using a drafting pen and colored pencils. Eventually I decided to try the technique on eggshells, perhaps inspired by my first view of real art eggs, a Christmas display of pysanke eggs at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. I find that the egg is a perfect and intriguing form for transforming a two-dimensional design into an interesting three-dimensional object. Having progressed through a number of techniques and styles over the years, I tend to repeat several of my favorites because creating them is such a pleasant activity. Now I have come full circle, creating the same sort of abstract doodle designs on paper for my own enjoyment and now for yours, too.
