Curio: Cinemadoodles

Alexa here. I'm a big fan of the doodle as an art form. In school I was often drawing in the margins of my notebooks, dreaming of a movie that helped me mentally escape class (Tony Manero was a favorite fantasy).  I also love Nathaniel's sketches, doodled in the dark while watching a movie (his Drive sketches were especially evocative). So I've had fun flipping through The Striking Viking's etsy shop. Shop owner Nick sketches movie scenes and celebrities with his left hand, and they are alternately hilarious and striking.  Makes you wish more film critics would publish their notebooks, no?

God that sketch of Stewart is scarily "on". Not that I think she's ugly or knew who it was, but once I saw the caption I thought "yeah, I can see that."

The one for Anchorman is cute - for some reason I was thinking it was a scene from a Wes Anderson film.

Janice -- totally. I even knew it was Kristen Stewart without the caption which is better than I could ever do with my left hand. also: I hought the exact same thing looking at the Anchorman sketch!
