Part of the 'drawing a day' series.

This is one of many people that I will be using in my Senior Thesis animation project. My project is to create an interactive piece that is aimed for teaching young underrepresented minorities and girls the design process for a robot. :)

More Ink fun- Less Letters this time :) And a little tribute to one of my favorite Schiele drawings (Reclining Woman with Red Blouse)

Third portrait from the collection "Women of the world"

Here's my second sketch for this book cover. This one will be scanned and colored. I drew it with my Pilot Custom 823 fountain pen.

An abstract doodle that creates space for a heart

A drawing a day challenge.

I have been really enjoying this motif lately of mixing geometric shapes and linework with the fluidity of watercolor.

Graphite and iron oxide recovered from acid mine run-off on watercolor paper

Yo amo los mundo sutiles, ingrávidos y gentiles, como pompas de jabón. Me gusta verlos pintarse de sol y grana, volar bajo el cielo azul, temblar súbitamente y quebrarse... (A. Macado)

A doodle of very blobby happy cats, on a lovely large scarf.

Engraving on linoleum

Ink on clayboard.

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.

My phone bill arrived vol2.

Reebok commissioned me to customize a pair of their white Classics in time for a holiday giveaway (2017).

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

I love to put my artwork everywhere. Being too narcissist huh? :p

I think Taco Bell Bear's mama might have drank a little too much Dew while he was in the womb. The theme of this page is "giant heads and the horrible birth experiences they yield."

This sketchbook spread comes with a free tea review. (I'm also a Sororitea Sister. That's a real thing. Feel free to look it up.) My favorite feature is Edgar Allan Poe in the lower right, though.

I have been participating in Lauren Hom’s #HOMwork challenges via Instagram. This weeks challenge was to draw the same letter 16 ways. I drew cats instead. I may come back to the whole lettering thing at some point!

Sometimes I just start throwing lines on top of lines. Today was such a day, fusing, intermingling, and vomiting lines up onto the page. (I originally titled this "Dreams in Digital" but then I was like "no one has heard Orgy's second album but you. Please abandon this late-1990s alt-rock persona. Live in the now.")

Here we have some very fancy European history folks, a creature that might be a dummy, and Harry Potter as a nervous waiter who can't remember if you got diet or regular soda. Because, let's face it, Harry was never THAT good at magic.

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/

A happy horse dances across a tiled floor. Gouache in the iPad Pro. Prints of this are available in my store.
