Spring Doodle Ideas to Brighten Your Sketchbook
Spring is basically the aesthetic season of the year, right? Everything starts to feel lighter, brighter and more inspiring. It’s the perfect time to give your sketchbook some love with fresh and easy spring drawing ideas that don’t require a ton of effort or supplies.
If you’ve been feeling that itch to create but want something low-key, drawing these spring ideas can help you slow down and recharge without needing to be super “artsy”.
I love squeezing in a few simple spring doodles during my morning routine or while sipping my afternoon coffee.
You don’t need a big reason to start. Just pick up your pen, draw what feels good and let the season do the rest.
The benefits of drawing and why it’s perfect for Spring
Maybe it’s the sun or the breeze coming through the window, but this time of year literally makes me wanna grab a pen and start drawing.
Drawing in spring isn’t only about making cute sketches. It’s like a way to reset and recharge and bring some calmness into your day. Even just five minutes of doodling can totally change your vibe. It helps clear your mind, boosts your mood and makes space for new ideas to come in.
Drawing is also a fun way to stay in the moment. When you’re drawing little flowers or your matcha, you’re not really thinking about your emails or all the stuff you gotta do. You’re just living in the moment and that’s self-care at it’s best.
Plus, the more you do them, the more you’ll notice your confidence growing. That’s the quiet magic of small habits, they build on themselves without forcing it.
Drawing Supplies you need to get started
You don’t need a fully stocked art studio to enjoy these easy spring doodles. Half the magic is just keeping it simple and letting your creativity show up however it wants.
Here’s what I always keep close by:
- Paper, sketchbook or draw it in your bullet journal
- Pencil or drawing pen (this is our favorite)
- Art Pens for coloring: Tombow Dual Brush Pens
- A cozy spot with some good light and maybe a drink
