A few years back I was doodling during a meeting and noticed that the little nebbishes were all frowning, scowling, and all wore doleful expressions. I felt like they looked. I decided to draw a page full of smiling people to see if my own mood would improve. It did a bit, so I came up with the outlandish claim that drawing "against the tide" of your mood might be good for you.
Whatever your drawing expertise, you might try drawing little smileys and see what it does for you. I'd be curious to find out.

Love this guy! He looks so happy and comfortable in both his clothes and skin! What great talent you have.
Great therapy, I'll try that for sure
:-)
You have a great talent. I can't draw for nuts but my sons enjoy a bit of doodling.
Anon-Thanks for the kind comments. I think anybody can doodle if they like to. It's about basic shapes and playing around with them. Hope your sons get lots of enjoyment out of their drawing as well. All the best,
bartster
