Another Birthday Card Doodle   June 16, 2026 A friend of mine has a birthday this weekend. She's about 2 weeks younger than I am. I drew a quick drawing and sent it out. I drew it in pencil and then decided that it might be better than how an inked version would look, so I left it at that, doing a little more shading to suggest the light and heat the candles were putting out. I was thinking about adding some color to the candle flames and fire and smoke, but I thought keeping it simple would work best. And after like 50+ years of drawing and doodling and such, I still don't know which side of human hands is where the thumb goes (viz: the right hand). Oh well. Here's the big picture".

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.

Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't. I don't care.
