Testimonials
"The Christie Hospital is the largest single Cancer Centre in Europe. In October 2003, we developed a multi-arts project across the hospital and in wards with patients who were unwell and recovering from surgery. Following on and inspired by a visit from Carol Edmonston, artist Adela Jones took the simple 3 stage instruction sheet from Carol's 'Create While You Wait'...patients found this relaxing and soothing..."

"Carol, aka The Doodle Lady, has visited my third grade classroom on numerous occasions to share her innovative art program. Her lessons celebrate each child's unique creativity. She gives the kids a few guidelines, shows some examples, and off they go. She encourages the kids to go beyond this one lesson and use doodling as an everyday, stress-free tool. She delivers her powerful message of personal well-being and embracing life in a gentle, fun way. I highly recommend her as a perfect inspirational speaker..."

"Carol's presentation was wonderful! 'Doodle Art' is perfect for school-age children because every single child can be successful. Artistic failure is non-existent. The 2nd graders were so intent on the process, they didn't even realize they were developing artistic skills. Every 'doodle' was unique and special. Doodle art should be part of the art curriculum for all grade levels. Everyone can create a masterpiece."
