The artist’s videos on social media have attracted millions of views. Though Jinks often chases Pixie and Dixie, he has a soft spot for them, evident in episodes such as 'Strong Mouse', 'The Pushy Cat' and 'Mouse Nappers'. He is the cat who constantly chases Pixie and Dixie, of whom he routinely said, 'I hate meeces to pieces' Jinks is an orange cat sporting a blue-colored bow tie.

“I am so excited that my doodles now have a permanent home in the UK.” Mr Doodle began doodling in his sketchbooks as a child, and his rapid doodle craze took him on a fun journey to doodling on all kinds of objects. The 28-year-old artist said: “The completion of the Doodle House is just the beginning of my childhood dream to doodle the entire planet and to encourage the art world to recognise doodles as an art form.

The home now features his designs on every surface and object from his bedding to crockery. Preventing adultitis means keeping our minds open to possibility and adventure.British artist Sam Cox has unveiled his latest project, the Doodle House, which he has covered inside and out in his signature hand-drawn doodles.Ĭox, aka Mr Doodle, began drawing his monochrome, cartoonish style over every inch of the 12-room house in Tenterden, Kent, two years ago. Being adults means we get access to better tools and equipment, we get to decided how we spend our time, and we can make things happen. If you think that some how makes it less child-like, whimsical, and fun, I’d like to introduce a couple more rules that don’t exist Thou shalt not sneak a camero into your basement woodshop for the winter just because the garage isn’t heated(2 years running) and thou shalt not build a temporary paint booth in your garage the next summer with 2 x 4s and plastic sheeting. You know people who really like decorating cars usually use paint especially created for that purpose, because you get better, more durable results(not that Sharpies are the wrong choice). Balancing practicality and self expression is a fun challenge. You certainly could create a batmobile logo magnet for your car, or google eyes, or different car costumes for everyday of the week. Well, the practical concern of resale value is certainly an influence in decisions about personalizing cars and houses, you also should be able to creatively enjoy something so central in your life and heavily invested in. On the other hand, just because something is a rule that doesn’t exist doesn’t mean you have to break it.Ĭonsidering WHY you wouldn’t is the valuable part. And that’s a mission that seems to be going pretty well for Mr. It is part of Mr Doodle’s goal that the humble doodle be recognized as an art form. But Doodle House wasn’t just a whim or an extremely elaborate social media stunt. But just because something is extremely uncommon and might be supremely difficult to do doesn’t mean it’s not a rule that doesn’t exist. It is the largest work of art to date for an artist who gained 2.6 million followers on Instagram. Not many folks have the desire / courage to take a Sharpie or a can of spray paint to to their shiny new car. I’m sure it has a lot to do with how much money we spent on it. Even though I am a trained artist, the odds of me painting a Batman logo on the side is somewhere between slim and not a chance in hell.īut a part of me - a big part of me, actually - wishes those odds were much, much higher.
We have a shiny black 2012 Ford Edge which we sometimes refer to as the Batmobile. If I had an old junky car, I might be tempted to do something similar.īut I’m gonna be honest here. Now, every once in a while you’ll see someone who has blinged out their beater jalopy with streaks of paint that make it look like an attendee at the original Woodstock. Even if the style is not your cup of tea, you gotta admit that the end result is pretty cool. I was reminded of that passage when I saw a story about this dude who let his artist wife draw all over his sports car with a Sharpie. He writes that if our wheelbarrow or trash can gets a big ding in it, we don’t give it another thought, but a small scratch in our new car causes us to freak out. In his book The Last Lecture, Randy Pausch talks about our attachment to material things.
