Abstract Art Drawing

Entopic Graphomania

What a grand name - more of that in a moment. Start with a blank paper find any / all marks or imperfections and make a dot. Then join the dots with a line or curve - without overthinking what the drawing will become. And the name? The entopic phenomenon comes from Greek - and are visual effects whose source is within the eye. Graphomania is to write in a frenzy. Entopic Graphomania was a game played by surrealist artists. It's great for experimentation and something that doesn't require many art materials or thoughts - so it's a great way to clear the mind and relax. Or perhaps it's just a posh doodle!
