Doodleledo with Mr Doodle: His Love For Art, Doodles and the Importance of Mental Health
At Doodleledo we’ve had the opportunity to work with the amazing artist Mr Doodle : from joining us in person at a Doodleledo session to joining a live Doodleledo on Instagram with us! It’s always been full of fun and a great experience for everyone involved!
To tell you a bit more about Mr Doodle and how he got involved with Doodleledo, let’s start with a bit of history...
Who is Mr Doodle?
Mr Doodle is a 27-year-old artist from London, Kent, whose artwork is focused around, you guessed it, doodles! The creative doodler is becoming one of the fastest-growing young artists in the world, due to his unique art style, clothing, and branding!
This growth has resulted in Mr Doodle gaining over 2.5 million Instagram followers, selling one of his paintings called Spring for over 1 million dollars, collaborating with PUMA, and all of this was done in only a matter of years.
One of his more recent projects that he has started is doodling on the entirety of his house, yes you heard that right, every single room from top to bottom! It’s all very impressive!
How it all began…
During a casual stroll through London, the founder of Doodleledo, Natalia, came across one of Mr Doodle’s pieces, Doodle Tunnel, where Mr Doodle had painted all the Tunnel of Great Eastern Street!
And instantly, she loved it! Captivated by his work, Doodleledo got in touch with Mr Doodle and met up for a social coffee!
And the rest is history…
Doodleledo Sessions with Mr Doodle!
Both sharing the same ideas and beliefs around art, doodles, and how it can help people’s mental health, we already knew that working together was going to be great!
Doodleledo in 2017!
Our first official Doodleledo with Mr Doodle took place in 2017 at The Trampery. A session that brought everyone together to have some fun doodling, to meet new people, all while having some snacks and drinks along the way.
After such a great experience we had to make it happen again...
Doodleledo Live in 2021!
And it did happen! In March this year, Mr Doodle joined us again but this time for an live Doodleledo session on Instagram!
It was full of creativity, fun, and socializing. We did a number of interactive doodle games for everyone to follow along and get doodling, and who better to do it with than Mr Doodle himself.
This Doodleledo was the perfect opportunity for us and everyone watching to get to know Mr Doodle even better. As you can tell by his name, Mr Doodle lives and breathes for Doodles, it’s his favorite way to escape and relax while expressing his creativity.
After having faced mental health himself in the past, Mr Doodle talked about how he believes that art and doodling are a great way to help improve your mental state. Doing something you love, something creative, and expressing yourself is one of the keys to happiness and wellbeing.
Think you can’t draw? Don’t let that stop you!
As Mr Doodle said during the session: “Doodling is the easiest and quickest way to express yourself creatively, and for that reason I love it, and for that reason, you should do it too.”
