Sometimes when I'm on my computer all day and I'm too lazy to get up but want some creative rest, I'll open Paint and scribble. Sometimes just colors and textures. Sometimes album covers for songs I'm listening to in another tab. Sometimes Xip. I try to keep them short and fast so I get better at picking colors and layering, but truly I just fiddle with them to my heart's content. All in one go though, no revising past work. I think that helps me stay in the moment.
This one I made while sitting on a sofa on the 7th floor of a building, looking out the window at night. I sat there a lot in school but I probably won't be exactly in that chair there again. I have mixed feelings about sitting in that chair all day, but the view is still special to me, and I'm glad I saved this doodle. Like a time capsule.
