TREE DOODLING..WATERCOLOR & INK & THE ELEGANT WRITER PEN

TREE DOODLING FOR TEXTURE

This is done in Watercolor & Ink including the Elegant Writer Pen.

I like to doodle while watching TV....I am one of those people who almost never can totally vege out in front of a TV, and just watch TV...my hands need to be busy.

Today, I doodled this while watching a ''Perry Mason'' marathon on the Hallmark channel. It has been a very long time since I watched Perry Mason , but as a teenager and even older I didn't miss it and loved ''detective'' shows!

I was very conscious today as I watched, at how the TV world and our world has changed as far as violence is concerned. Even though Perry solved murders; in the show there was very little blood and guts and violence shown...whereas today a TV show of this genre will show you really mind boggling violence, blood, and horrifying scenes of dead, mutilated bodies. It really has become a violent world if we listen to the news and watch TV.....but there is another way to live in peace within ourselves....and I choose that way. You can have your crime dramas of today...I'll stick to Perry, or maybe Murder She Wrote'' which is the marathon for next weekend, if I need a detective show, or I will not watch at all....:)

Interestingly enough, I listened to an interview of Sonia Sotomayor on 60 Minutes tonight and she said Perry Mason and Nancy Drew books inspired her as a kid to go into the career she chose....I liked them both a lot too...:)
