Fish-dog and face with geometric nose

 pen on paper, 15  x 10 cm

 

 

 

 

Faces with geometric noses are extremely enjoyable doodle subjects, partly because they allow one to do cross-hatching and create three dimensions. They always make me think of Bertie Bassett -¨Britains Greatest Asset"-  mascot for Liquorice Allsorts.

 

 I like three-dimensional letters for the same reasons though they lack the puzzle-quality that abstracting facial features provides.

 

I very often doodle letters of the alphabet but I feel this merits a posting of its own.
