If you’re a doodler, you used to need to draw in the margins of notebooks, “to do” lists, and even on the back of receipts. But now you have an entire book to fill with your doodles.

This book is about doodling cartoons. Everyone knows what a cartoon is. But what, pray tell, is a doodle exactly? A doodle is often thought of as a whimsical fragment of art. Doodles are fun to draw. They get your creative juices flowing. They keep you awake during team meetings.

What if you could enjoy the spontaneity of doodling, but end up with a real cartoon? This idea appealed to me. And it prompted me to think up this book. With each doodle, you’ll draw a cartoon, which will entertain you, your friends, your family, and if they’re exceptionally intelligent, your pets.
Aspiring artists often write to me and say that they find it hard to come up with ideas. This book will inspire you and help kick-start your imagination. I’ll start each page with a drawing/doodling prompt, and you’ll take it from there. Each chapter contains many projects for you to draw, design, and color.
Enough said. Get out your pencils. Let’s get creative.

Follow the Guidelines 
Before you begin to doodle, take a look at the two guidelines below—the center line and the eye line. You’ll see these guidelines used throughout the book. They help artists find the correct placement for the features on the head. Using the guidelines will make the characters easier to draw and more consistent too.
