© 2018 Joe Blend. All rights reserved. — Artwork was made using a black Sharpie marker, a Ranger white opaque pen, a Precise V5 Rolling Ball extra fine black pen, and a sheet of paper from a Moleskine journal. The piece was then copied in black and white using an HP copier. The artwork is inspired by “Beyond Waves & the Notion of Time,” my blog post about the importance of the journey: http://bit.ly/2Fs0au4.
A lot of times my pens take over, spilling out the inside of my brain onto the paper. Thankfully, it's not as gross as it sounds.
Stream of consciousness drawing and doodling is always therapeutic. I love starting down a trail and not knowing where I will end up.
I have been opening up my sketchbook, and drawing while not looking at my lines. I then color them in and add words for personal reflections.
