Abstract Joodle for December

One of the groups on creativespark.art is a Monthly Challenge.  This month's prompts are 

abstract
vegetable
artists choice

I do my Joodles (Jo-doodles) with a fine line pen usually.  I don't paint abstracts but I thought this might qualify for abstract if I splashed some coffee on the page and then doodled with a Prismacolor chisel pen. 




This last one is the orientation that I drew.  To me it looks like a chicken.  The first view above looks like a piggy looking up.  The second appears as a fish swimming to the right. And the third is like Santa with a bag on his back.  What do you see  ... if anything?

 

My On-line friend Barbara Pask painted a cute Santa - not abstract.    55 minutes on YouTube.

 We got some packages mailed off yesterday.  Pretty busy at the Post Office and UPS.  Hope you are getting your stuff done!  I was going to put up the tree but they are going to wash the windows on Monday so will have to wait....

Girl! You got some sort of imagination :) Once you put the thought in our heads, I can kind of see it, but maybe not in the same joodle that you saw it in.

The second one looks like a fish to me too.

I have my tree and decorations done, but I still have baking and cooking to do. I need a few gifts too. All of a sudden there is so little time left...and I'm going into the city tomorrow and Saturday. Yikes!!!

bag blog, ha! We see what we want, right? Thanks for stopping in.

Joan, They are sort of like clouds, I see something then next time I see something else. Thanks for playing along in this busy time.
