Inspired by Ed Emberley

Recently a friend was talking about her daughter’s drawings inspired by Ed Emberley’s drawing books.
So, we busted out an Emberley drawing book on making drawings with fingerprints and some washable markers.

We had a lot of fun. These are turtles climbing a mountain and assorted other doodles from The Complete Funprint Drawing Book.

In my basement book collection I still have the 1979 Big Green Drawing Book my mother got signed for me at an ALA conference. We’ll have to pull it out for more ideas.
