It’s great fun to look at your drawings. Is this one that just grew as you drew it? It’s definitely unique and very interesting and a lot of fun to see you include patterns and mechanical objects and gears seeming to grow out of each other. They look like they’re morphing from one object or thought into another. This one has a lot repeating patterns which feel almost random and it’s why I think it might be stream of consciousness.

I like your clocks with the hands showing all the hours at once. Like time is either rushing by or standing still. Or both, giving a suspended sense of time.

I like it a lot. Thanks so much for posting it!

I really don't know how the drawing came to be! I really didn't plan for the outcome. I'm baffeled as to the final drawing. It seems to be bizarre. I just put pen to ink and carry on, I can't explain it. It just comes together. Weird. Thank you for your comments. I wish I could be more clear on the development of the drawing.

You might find it interesting and be able to figure out what it is if you do if you go to YouTube and search for Stream of Consciousness drawing. There are videos of artists who do it and each artist is unique and very talented and their drawing are fascinating and a lot of fun to look at.

Doodling should never be underestimated or dismissed. I doodle and if I just go with it and just keep drawing it turns into something interesting that is abstract art. The end product just happens. It grows out of something that started off very simply.
