Albert Powell​ Biography

​The art you see is very hard to classify, as you will probably agree.  As long as I can remember, I have “doodled.”  Now that I am retired (after more than 40 years as an engineering consultant), I can “doodle” whenever I please. 

In the past my “doodling” was often done much to the dismay of my teachers and my employers.  During junior high, high school, college, and in nearly every meeting I attended as an adult, I could be seen “doodling” in intricate patterns, much like the examples you see displayed.

​For some strange reason doodling helped me pay attention better.  After considerable encouragement from my co-workers, wife and others, (notice I did not mention teachers or bosses) I started making the “doodles” a little more formal.
