Open Doodles is a free library of sketchy, hand-drawn illustrations of people, designed for designers, developers, and creators to use freely in mockups, prototypes, and projects.

---

🚀 Overview

Open Doodles is a collection of fun, imperfect sketchy illustrations created by Pablo Stanley to embrace Open Design principles. Users can download editable SVGs and PNGs to drop into their work, remix them, or use as placeholders to demonstrate the value of illustrations in designs.

It solves the problem of accessible, customizable visual assets for prototyping—allowing designers to showcase ideas without immediately hiring illustrators or dealing with restrictive licenses.

Built for designers, UI/UX professionals, developers, indie makers, and anyone needing quick, personality-filled graphics.

Pablo Stanley built it to give back to the design community, share his process openly (from notebook sketches to vector libraries), and encourage collaboration, tinkering, and learning by making source files available.
