Year of the Doodle: 365 Drawing, Collaging, and Mark-Making Adventures

I am enjoying this book so much -- the prepped pages and the prompts make it so easy to just dive in and get doodling. The daily amount of space is completely doable, and this is a great choice for kids, novices, and professionals. The paper quality is good, and will hold up to a variety of media. There is a clear glossary of art materials -- how they can be used and where they can be found that many will find helpful. Here are several of my responses to the days' prompts.

Not a big fan. Would have been better if I saw it in person first or if Amazon still had the Look Inside feature which seems to have disappeared. If I'd flipped through it I would not have gotten it. I was actually expecting more prompts for doodling. Or more detailed. Many spaces are empty or there's a quote about art vs a daily prompt. I am not a natural doodler, but I dabble in art journaling and want to work on doodling skills. Glad I bought it used through an Amazon seller.I also thought that it would be more generic. It is set up to follow the calendar year. Not a deal breaker, I guess I can just start part way in on the current date. I simply thought from the description that it would have 365 prompts/spaces, but not necessarily listing the month & day.I am sure this works for a lot of people. Even most people. It's just hard to buy art books like this online. You really can't be sure that you are getting what you want/expect. I have another book on doodling and will probably use it for prompts and inspiration to fill in the blank days until I get more natural with it. This would probably be great for someone who is already inclined to doodling naturally and thus does not need much more than some time and space.The intro on supplies is really good and might be helpful for someone who doodles, but doesn't do art. Art journalers and mixed media people will be familiar with the supply list, but many people might find great new favorite products.

I absolutely love this book it not only has a prompt everyday for doodling it also let's you know what day it is if you follow the outlines. You can start it any where by knowing the present date and then every day you doodle your drawings, which in my case then inspires me to write or draw. I am both a graphic designer and a writer. There fore doodling not only relieves tension and stress but also gives me prompts for writing. I absolutely am using it as a scrap/doodle/inspiration/writing book and it's wonderful. I love it. There are no days listed just dates so I received mine on the 15th of October and that's the day I started with, therefore every day since then I have doodled, added stickers, embelishments etc.... What a fun time, like other prompt books but just for doodling not drawing or writing but doodling, you know the thing you do when your bored if you happen to have a pen and paper handy.

I didn't know quite what to expect, but I love it. Both the prompts and the background are varied and interesting. I expect to do it daily. I had already been trying to to something arty every day, and this will be especially useful on those days when the muse doesn't come by.

I’m very happy with this book! I love all the pages, I love that the author is on Instagram and responded to my message. I have doodled every day and colored them in and it’s making a very lovely memoir for 2020

I think the idea of this book is wonderful but problematically the promts are strange and some of the spaces are too big or small depending on the promts.

An awesome way to get little inspiration for a daily doodle. It encourages me to experiment with different mediums and techniques. Allows my brain to grab onto a general idea and run with it. I've been happily surprised with some of the random things that I have created because of this book. Great creative outlet.

I'm enjoying this book so much! I wanted to work on an art journal but I'm an amateur artist so I felt the whole idea wouldn't work for me. Thanks to this book, I'm having a great time journaling! You don't have to produce great art. Just get started and enjoy the process.

This book would have been so much better if it had been spiralbound!. I found the pages difficult to work on because of the spine. In the end I cut off the spine and inserted a couple of binding rings and it's much better now!! Indeed, I can remove a page and work on it on a flat desk!

I brought this for my nephew and my two daughters for Christmas (age range from 10-14) and they all love it. It’s very inspiring and well made. I will be getting myself one next Christmas as well as a few other adults that have seen my daughters copies and really like the look of them.I’d definitely recommend buying this product.

good concept

Brilliant product I will be buying this again in December ready for 2017!

Love it!
