According to Wikipedia, a doodle is a drawing made while a person's attention is otherwise occupied. Doodles are simple drawings that can have concrete representational meaning or may just be abstract shapes.
( This is an example of one of my doodles. March 2015)
Q&A:
X : Where do you get your inspiration to draw? You're incredible! What I mean by inspiration, I suppose, is how do you come up with the designs for these? Is there some creative process that you go through?
I don’t really know! I always start off the basic shape in my head and work from there really but I usually make it up as I go along. Usually if I’m unsure if it’s going to look okay I just do it!
Y : How do you draw your Mandalas? You're just perfect!
Thank you! To grid your mandalas up before drawing, I draw all the different circles using a compass in pencil then split it up into sections using a protractor and go over the line with pen.
Z : How do you get your ideas from? I've tried to draw mandalas many times and I feel they are hard.
I always use the same basic shapes but different orders. All the shapes are basically the same except they’re used in different sizes and positions. Also look at the structure of a flower. That’s what I base the shape on.

W : What pens do u use? :)
I usually use pigment liners, sharpies,Stabilo point 88, Stabilo Zebrui 68. Depends on what I’m working on or what I want to express really.
Xx : Where do you get your ideas?
Anywhere really. I constantly look for different ideas and patterns I could use and develop, and then connect everything in one art piece. That’s when I realised there’s art everywhere. I went to museums and ended up with hundreds of pictures of Islamic art, Greek patterns, Egyptian drawings and more. You can get ideas from any place, you just have to look for them.
Yy : Is it okay to copy a Zentangle from your work for an abstract piece of art?
Well I think it depends. I don’t really mind people copying some patterns from my works, but I would mind if someone copied my work exactly as I did it and take credit for it. I don’t think there’s any problem with extracting patterns from other artists though.
Zz : Your work is really amazing. How much of it is planning vs improving?
Well it really depends on the artist, my drawings are usually improvised. I know some people draw lines with pencil to guide themselves, specially when drawing mandalas, it’s very helpful.
