My daughter is a creative. The doodles below are charming, filled with personality and all the whimsy that defines her. They bring humor, storytelling and joy to those who see them
The cast of characters in these include:
Her brother – whom we affectionately call brother
Jorge – the black goldfish Kate gave her brother at christmas – that is thriving beautifully!
Kate – but of course
Cleo – our cat
Marble – our dog
As a theme, and in most of Kate’s doodles – Cleo is sitting on a pillow, this is because Cleo lives in our bathroom and really does sit on a pillow most of the time.
Brother has a fish

This year in math class Kate’s teacher had a baby that went through surgery, in an effort to cheer her teacher up, Kate did a doodle with Marble our dog as a character of some sort. I don’t remember the first one – boy scout marble or something like that, and hung it in the classroom. The next day she did another doodle, and soon there was a row of marble doodles in class. Kate did 100 doodle drawings all told. Can you imagine? The drawings became a source of entertainment not only for her math class but for every other math class as well. Marble became iconic. We even took a field trip, Marble and I, so that the classroom could see our dog. When Kate brought all the drawings home we sat and toured them together and sometimes I laughed so hard I could hardly stand it. They were really incredible.

She’s quite creative and talented– a lot like her Mommy.
Kate’s doodles are charming and unique, Karen. I bet they really cheered up her math teacher. Is she planning on art as a career or does she just like to doodle?Shine On,Lill
Kate was a child who said when I grow up I want to be everything! She plans to study Theatre and Choral with a monor in music education – she’s taken photography, jewelry and ceramics and loved it. I see her dabbling and doodling in her own way a very long time
Why thank you Karen!!
That girl, Kate, has got a gift. She must have gotten from her Mom!
She is a gift and perhaps some of that did rub off her mom. I will say though as much as an individual as I might think I am. Kate surpasses me
