Hello, my name is Bleu Hope,
and I'm a doodle addict. Edinburgh, Scotland, UK

A little bit about myself? Well, keeping it brief was never my style but everything's better than nothing. My name is Bleu (rhymes with 'blue', and is more than likely a product of my parents having a Bob Geldof/Paula Yates phase they've yet to tell me about) and to put it bluntly art is my life, and creating and making is what I live for. You'll also find me over here, where you'll find my digital art and photography: https://www.instagram.com/bleu.hope/

I specialize in collage, drawing, illustration, mixed media art, pen and ink.

You can also find me on:

Your Rum Is Leaking (But Thats Fine), January 2019.

"Lang may yer lum reek (a Hogmanay greeting, implying "May you never be without fuel for your fire!", but more literally translates to "Long may your chimney smoke!")" All this I corrupted and used to inspire me here.

Willingly burrows “Ian”...

*writes a few words, masticates a few more he found reading Doctor Who books* An ode to the more saccharine yet saltier tasting things in life. Faff and fluff aside, find your own meaning folks.
