The Olive Market in Redlands. It is a joy to come to this little neighborhood shop. It is across the street from a cute little elementary school (McKinley). Kids go into the Olive Market to get candy. Adults can enjoy the best cookies, pastries, and breads that Redlands has to offer (and i am pretty picky about pastries!) You can buy nice beers, but are NOT allowed to drink them on premises. There is a lovely patio in front with a doggie-water bowl alongside an outdoor drinking fountain for people walking by, or whatever. All-in-all, a place like this is a great community asset (and I might add that there is ample bicycle parking)!
Doodle
A doodle is an unfocused or unconscious drawing made while a person's attention is otherwise occupied. Doodles are simple drawings that can have concrete representational meaning or may just be abstract shapes.
Stereotypical examples of doodling are found in school notebooks, often in the margins, drawn by students daydreaming or losing interest during class. Other common examples of doodling are produced during long telephone conversations if a pen and paper are available.
Popular kinds of doodles include cartoon versions of teachers or companions in a school, famous TV or comic characters, invented fictional beings, landscapes, geometric shapes, patterns and textures.
Etymology[edit]
The word doodle first appeared in the early 17th century to mean a fool or simpleton.[1] It may derive from the German Dudeltopf or Dudeldop, meaning simpleton or noodle (literally "nightcap").[1]
The meaning "fool, simpleton" is intended in the song title "Yankee Doodle", originally sung by British colonial troops prior to the American Revolutionary War. This is also the origin of the early eighteenth century verb to doodle, meaning "to swindle or to make a fool of". The modern meaning emerged in the 1930s either from this meaning or from the verb "to dawdle", which since the seventeenth century has had the meaning of wasting time or being lazy.
In the movie Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, Mr. Deeds mentions that "doodle" was a word made up to describe scribblings to help a person think. According to the DVD audio commentary track, the word as used in this sense was invented by screenwriter Robert Riskin.[citation needed]
Effects on memory[edit]
According to a study published in the scientific journal Applied Cognitive Psychology, doodling can aid a person's memory by expending just enough energy to keep one from daydreaming, which demands a lot of the brain's processing power, as well as from not paying attention. Thus, it acts as a mediator between the spectrum of thinking too much or thinking too little and helps focus on the current situation. The study was done by Professor Jackie Andrade, of the School of Psychology at the University of Plymouth, who reported that doodlers in her experiment recalled 7.5 pieces of information (out of 16 total) on average, 29% more than the average of 5.8 recalled by the control group made of non-doodlers.[2]
Alexander Pushkin's notebooks are celebrated for their superabundance of marginal doodles, which include sketches of friends' profiles, hands, and feet. These notebooks are regarded as a work of art in their own right. Full editions of Pushkin's doodles have been undertaken on several occasions.[3] Some of Pushkin's doodles were animated by Andrei Khrzhanovsky and Yuriy Norshteyn in the 1987 film My Favorite Time.[4][5]
Notable doodlers
Nobel laureate (in literature, 1913) poet Rabindranath Tagore made huge number of doodles in his manuscript.[6] Poet and physician John Keats doodled in the margins of his medical notes; other literary doodlers have included Samuel Beckett and Sylvia Plath.[7] Mathematician Stanislaw Ulam developed the Ulam spiral for visualization of prime numbers while doodling during a boring presentation at a mathematics conference.[8] Many American Presidents (including Thomas Jefferson, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton) have been known to doodle during meetings.[9]
Some doodles and drawings can be found in notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci.
Wikipedia, Ballpoint pen drawing
By Jerry Stith on Friday, October 28, 2011 at 6:21pm
Ballpoint Pen Drawings are a form of art that consist of the usage of a ballpoint pen in a way similar to an average pencil except that the results are more permanent. The medium itself is considered to be easier to purchase when compared to other artistic materials. It is also a tool that any level of artist can use. Unlike other pens such as a fountain pen or crowquill pen the ink is less messy and does not bleed as much. The ink is instead distribute through the small ball at the tip of the pen which helps manage ink distribution more without difficulty. There are many intricate pictures produced by shading and the creating of many tones through techniques that are very similar to a pencil drawing. Not only is black ballpoint pen ink being used, various color inks have been as well. Subject matters for this type of art consist of portraits, sketches, still-life's, landscapes, abstracts and ect. The most prolific ballpoint pen artist, publisher, video producer and information provider Jerry Stith,[1] is known for pushing in the whole new movement of using ballpoint pens as a medium for illustrating and drawing period. He has produced 3,750 of his own art pieces using this medium and is still continuing as of 2011. The movement itself has been going on for some time and is picking up speed even now. Thanks to his enthusiasm in this new form of art many amazing artist such as Babis Kiliaris, Juan F. Casas, Virginia Rodriguez Cañete, Andrey Hrenov and Shirish Deshpande [2] have appeared in the art world. Not only are the many artworks created with this medium made for just amusement they are being placed in exhibits such as the one by the Korean artist Il Lee, who will display his abstract drawings at The Crow Collection of Asian Art located in Dallas, Texas on April 8, 2011.[3]

(2019) The Root
Here is a landscape art of a tree, inspired by a tree I looked out of the window during lunch this day.
Recently I had a chat with some internet friends who deeply loath their own heritage. I was flabbergasted to learn that these people think that their civilization is worthless, and they are unwilling to contribute to the future of their mother nation. Worse off they are looking forward to see it collapses and falls apart.
So I drew this with some self reflections, remind myself not to forget the root, one’s heritage.

（2019）不忘根
這是一幅畫樹風景插圖，以一顆我在午餐時望向窗外的樹為靈感而繪。
近日與痛恨自己民族的網友溝通，無法理解有人認為自己文明毫無價值，無心為自己國家民族的未來出力，而只是一味反之。所以有感繪此圖，題名為不忘根，自醒不忘本。

(2019 Shin Se-Kyung
This is the digital painting version of my daily art South Korean actress Shin Se-Kyung (신세경 Jul 29, 1990 - ) on July 29th 2018.
Looked at Picasso's Le Rêve (1932) and @qinniart 's art for color inspirations. It is daunting to look at what other artists can accomplish, but gotta do my best to improve.

i started a little too far down, but i hate drawing clouds, so i just had to leave the top half blank. i was sitting on an old rusted metal platform that juts out into the lagoon, there's an old ship that people fish off of sometimes in the bottom left corner. it's all rusty, too.
