This is simply a fact, but I think it was the word kinesthetic that garnered me her approval. I hope she looked it up when she went home.

If your drawing implement hits the paper, it's all grist for the art mill and it doesn't matter what you call it. It's all part of the process of your art and necessary to you. Call it whatever makes you happy–just keep doing it!!!

doodle–to draw or scribble idly
sketch– a simple or hastily done drawing/painting giving essential features without details.
Can a sketch become a doodle, like your birds for example if you happen to be doing it sort of mindlessly while chatting? I might think no, but then to doodle is to draw or scribble, so perhaps.
Tricky question.
