Some of my designs and doodles
struggling with words
I’ve always been a doodler and no surprises really, I was diagnosed mildly dyslexic in my teens, after struggling my way through high school and suddenly I understood why I had always drawn pictures instead or written words.
At this point, I was already on my way to art college and saw dyslexia as a kind of blessing that had focussed my mind on pictures and stories.
So thought i’d share plus some of the my doodles and design mock-up work. I still love to sketch, scamp, doodle, illustrate, paint, draw and digitally create with Photoshop and the Adobe suite.
