(2014) MD_Orca Minimalist Doodle 

I pulled this from one of my sketchbooks and took a pic of it, then tried to trace over the original in Photoshop to get a cleaner look.  I was trying to get really smooth lines, but I found that the sketch actually lost all it's personality when I did that.  I had to go over the shape a couple of times with different amounts of opacity to get it to look like the sketch again.  I finally got it to look like the original doodle, and then I added some color.  I've got a couple more of these; they're pretty fun to do when you get them right!  I'm calling them minimalist doodles, and I'll probably play around with the color palettes a bit more, just for funsies. 

Like these weird square doodles?  Here's more of them: X
