Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Thirty minutes of doodling was a little harder than I expected because I wanted to draw more than I wanted to doodle, but I cleared my mind to let my pen move across the paper without thinking about what the pen was doing. The whole time I doodled I thought a little bit about the definitions of synchronicity, serendipity, and spontaneity. I could not focus on synchronicity and serendipity because I could not get a full understanding of their meanings. I mainly focused on spontaneity because in the doodle I kept making spontaneous line movements. Most of the time I was doodling, I was just out in a daze looking out of my window watching traffic go up and down the street.



Then when I looked back down at my doodle, I started thinking of spontaneous line movements. As the minutes passed by, I found myself getting a little bored because I was running out of space for my spontaneous line movements, and I wanted to start drawing from the doodle I had.





This is the end result of the doodle.



This is the finished piece that I saw coming to life from the doodle.


Even though the shapes in this drawing have no real meaning to me, I remember them being created from spontaneous line movements across paper. I thought I was making some sort of flower, but they didn't turn out looking like flowers. They are just pretty cool looking geometric shapes.
