If you've ever wanted to learn more about me, this is your opportunity.

"Oh my gawwwwd, I have a friend that you'd be SO CUTE WITH," your friends gush. So you go, but, uh, he's not what you expected -- and you're not what he expected either. (Has this happened to you?)

This is the bottom half to a recent sketch, just my take on a technological based breed that are spoon fed opinions from various sources.

The Molting Man first appeared on my Red Spread (see second image); I refined him for the green spread (first). This bizarre Icarus deserves some kind of short story about him. I'm not sure what the plot would be. It's probably tragic.

This serie is about my trip to Bologna. I'm so sorry they're Turkish :(

Logo I made for my buddy’s business

He’s an “awt collectah”! Watercolor lined with pink pen.

What's inside my bag? well i bring point n shoot analog camera, a DSLR, pencil box (with pen, pencil and eraser inside), watercolor travel pack from Daler Rowney, mini sketchbook (i use Muji), lipstick, brush pens (Pentel). And no, i'm not bring botanical plant inside my bag, its just something i see and i directly draw it, haha.

Another of one of my last doodles for the 100 Days Project. This is called "All in All" and it's directly inspired by All Apologies song by Nirvana.

...when you login into DA to submit an entry into a drawing challenge a day late. Whoops.

This is everyone who smokes. Even if I want to just talk about the science and neurology of Nicotine and Dopamine, this always comes up.

Ain't no narwhal like a sexy narwhal, because a sexy narwhal don't stop.

I've tried to bring the feeling of motion into my sketch. I like capturing street scenes and wanted to convey the gritty street alogwith the activity of the tourists and Londoners.

•EMI ♡ DOODLE• I’m a Doodler ( Doodle Artist ). Constellation Collection -The Sea Goat- The Greek Mythology of the sea goat, half goat and half fish. The top represents as the land the tail represents as sea. It’s belong to the earth element as well, and It’s my favourite constellation of all.

This mermaid/siren is the type that's a man/octopus instead. I think he'd make a nice tattoo if he were cleaned up a bit.

Anxiety-Ridden Gnome With His Trusted Service Log. Watercolor and Gouache on Arches watercolor paper

This is my illustration of the Mad Hatter, based on the Tim Burton interpretation; it was created for a recent blog post. Everything was drawn by hand on white cardstock, using illustration pens, except for the background (which was created by scanning a specific craft paper pattern). The black and white conversion/inversion, composition, and subtle refinements were done in Adobe Photoshop. © 2018 Joe Blend. All rights reserved.

While driving through Florida, I came across a large flock of flamingos flogging a clown near swamp.

This doodle is based off Norman Rockwell’s The Tattoo Artist and pairs with the blog I wrote about how I think our society needs to change the words we use to describe love. ❤️ “ Love is a collaborative work of art.” https://princess2dutchess.wordpress.com/2018/02/04/loneliness/

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.

In 7th grade we did a rat dissection. Of course, our rat didn't look like this but this is what I remember.
