What’s the difference between drawing and doodling? Both have aesthetic ends. Both involve making marks on a surface. Both are fun.
The difference, then, must be that doodling is more about the repetitive pleasure of creating lines on a surface than any specific artful end. Drawing is about form; doodling is about the way a pen feels in the hand. But presumably there’s some crossover between the two.
Actually, considerable crossover. Cheeming Boey’s styrofoam cups exist in that gray area between one and the other. Art? Or just the product of doinking around? Whatever they are, they sure look cool.
