#DoodlewashJuly2025 Prompt 25-Howl
Did you know the cute, little 3.5-5 inch grasshopper mouse likes to throw back it’s head and howl - just before it kills its prey? They are aggressive predators, eating scorpions, small rodents, and lots of insects and other creepy crawlies. They are cannibalistic and will eat each other if they are hungry enough. But they are cute.
Done very quickly with Niji Watercolor on Stonehenge Aqua cold press.

An Example done for my review of: YUPO® Synthetic Paper Pads.
When you open a YUPO Synthetic Paper Pad, it looks like paper inside. But the minute you touch it, you can feel it’s not. When you try to paint on it, you’ll really know it’s not.
Not happy with your work - totally erase it, partially erase it, and start over like new. Want to learn more about YUPO?

#DoodlewashNovember2024 prompt: Fence. Did you know there is a villa in Turkey with an aquarium fence that is over 538 feet, filled with fish, eel, and octopi?
This was done with shimmery colors so it looks quite a bit different in real life.

#DoodlewashJuly2025 Prompt 15-Dusty.
Did you know the dusty miller plant has both deer and insect-repelling properties? However, it can be toxic to pets. So you shouldn’t let your cat wander through it, even if it is the same color as the plant!
I couldn’t quite visualize the composition for this one, so I just painted. Not happy with it, but that’s how you learn. I should’ve posted it yesterday, but I’ve been posting so out of order, I set it up for the wrong day.

#DoodlewashJuly2025 Prompt 10-Turtle.
Did you know Clarence Coles Phillips Fadeaway style was popular with both the public and the publishers - his designs needed less color than the full-color covers that were then the industry standard?
This was done quickly - probably about 20-25 minutes, and I kept it simple because I came up with it on the fly.
Very Vaguely Inspired by Clarence Coles Phillips’ ‘Autumn Walk’.
One of these days, I want to do something that is much closer to that painting.

And everyone knows it’s much easier to build a sandcastle if you have someone to help you dig up the sand!

#DoodlewashJune2025 Prompt: Art Supplies & Biscuit Barrel.
Did you know the biscuit barrel, which became popular in 18th century Britain, was originally a cylindrical glass jar with a metal lid but may have been inspired by the barrels used to keep ‘ship’s biscuit’ in the Navy? They became popular as ‘cookie jars’ in the U.S., after WWI.

Did you know the potato was the first vegetable grown in space, and there is a ‘Potatoes on Mars’ project collaboration between CIP, NASA and the SETI Institute to grow potatoes in Mars-like conditions?
Do you think in the future, once the potatoes crawl from their tunnels submerged beneath the Martian dust, all dressed up in fancy potato skins (called jackets in some countries), they’ll drift off toward Earth to feed us?

I stopped on a back road to snap a shot of this little house that I've always found charming. It's at the bottom of a large property and is maintained, but for what, I'm not sure. It's not an old cold house, and I'm so curious what it was/is used for.

#DoodlewashJune2025 Prompt: Magpie.
Did you know that Magpie Geese are unusual for several reasons? The male tramples reeds into a floating bed for his mate. Or mates - they like to breed two females to a male! The females lay their eggs on this bed and they feed their young rather than just leading them to food as other waterfowl do. Last but not least, they have a hind toe on their webbed feet that allows them to climb and sleep in trees.
