About Flip Doodle

Early in 2020, Eric Torres created Flip Doodle – a set of free drawing prompts for people who love to doodle. Well, skipping, skipping – he turned those original PDF downloads into a sorta magical card deck packed with creative possibilities called Flip Doodle Deluxe! In this family-friendly doodling meetup, Eric shares how the game works, what inspired it and how removing realism from our drawings not only refuels our imagination but leads us to new opportunities. Kick off this year’s conference with refreshments and creative friends who doodle!

We’ll be displaying and sharing all of the delightfully unexpected sketch combos during the conference, and you never know, you might even make it onto Eric’s blog yourself!

Flip Doodle is the beginning of a creative voyage. And the most exciting thing is, it’s one we can take together. Through real connection. The kind not found in an app or by suffering through ads. I’ll be talking with new folks. Listening to their stories. Understanding where they’re coming from. With doodling to connect us and guide us.” — Eric Torres
