The Other Side of the Street
It was pointed out to me that Doodle Street was missing a few crucial amenities. Notably a flower shop, a pie shop, and of course a pub.
This oversight has now been rectified.

Doodles often end up being much more, which is sometimes a problem if I’ve started doodling on a scrap of paper, or if I’m simply sketching in a corner of another drawing. However, yesterday, my doodle simply evolved to fill the space available.
I began scribbling the beginnings of a house on a folded piece of paper I was using to keep another drawing clean while I worked.
I quite liked where it was going, so I carried on, and on. Eventually filling the space I had with half a street’s worth of buildings.
I added some background, and extended the street with a little tudor building to the left, worked in a bit more detail and the pen work was finished, just the colouring was left.
I use photoshop to colour my drawings, using multiple layers to build up the colour and detail. The final version of Doodle Street has over 80 of these layers. To show how this builds up into a final illustration I made a process movie…
