Three years into Doodlers Anonymous and I was feeling pretty confident that we covered almost every type of doodle and drawing medium. Then I stumbled upon the work of Darren Pearson (aka Darius Twin) and was floored with the skill in which he drew things with light (specifically LEDs).

I know it's been around for a few years now, going mainstream with the 2007 Sprint Commercial, but I still find it completely fascinating and the control in which Darren brings these drawings to life is almost magical. Click here for some of my favorites from his flickr feed and at the bottom you'll find a short video tutorial by Darren himself.

The world of John Malta is in another realm. His shaky uneven lettering, his colorful yet dark and eerie illustrations, his fascination with punk shows and pet lizards - they all make for something that's weird and wonderful at the same time.

To this day, John's cat doodle (I'm still not quite sure if it's really a cat but I love him anyway), which you can find inside our DA coloring book, remains as one of my favorites.

For his feature, John answered a few questions for us in doodle form. His answers, as you will see, are full of character, full of texture, full of awesome. He also sent over some photos from inside his studio in NYC, where he is living now.

Moldy Magic. That's how he refers to his work. And really, I couldn't have come up with a better pairing of words to describe John Malta and his sultry craft. It's bound to grow on you, if it hasn't already.

Ever been engulfed with visual thoughts of beards with amorphous bodies, killer beards from outer space, or a large beard colony? I have and because of that I went scouring the internet to find others that may have encountered those same visions. I was not disappointed.

Get ready to embark on the Great Beard Adventure.

I love doing walls and especially if they are in some old, deserted ambient. So I was amazed the other day when I found this beautiful collaboration between Otecki and Szum.

For me this is a perfect example of making something that can at the same time live a life of its own and be in complete harmony with its surroundings. Jump to their flickr pages and find more amazing works from these two guys!

If I were to envision Doodlers Anonymous as a published book, it would look damn close to the one I am about to give away.

Julia Rothman is an illustrator and pattern designer who runs the popular blog Book By Its Cover, which features a different art-related book every weekday. We've been fans of the site since day one and especially love the weekly sketchbook series.

Her latest book, Drawn In, is a peek into the inspiring sketchbooks of 44 fine artists, illustrators, graphic designers, and cartoonists. It's an incredible read, filled with insightful q&a and beautiful full-color photographs of sketchbook pages that were quite possibly never meant to be seen.

We are fans not only of the content, but because it features some of our favorite artists. Of the 44, at least 10 have been featured on Doodlers Anonymous, including the amazing Ted McGrath.

Friends of DA, we are giving this great book away. To be in the running, just leave a comment with the title of a book you bought because of its cover. We'll pick a winner from the hat. Comments close June 15th (Wednesday) at 2pm Eastern. Good luck everyone;...and for those of you that can't wait, get your hands on the book today. It deserves to be on your coffee table.

And the winner is: Robyn Wells. Congrats!

I have an unhealthy infatuation with all things robot. I use an Android phone. My favorite movie is Terminator 2. I cheered as Watson destroyed the inadequate humans at Jeopardy. And I have recurring dreams of the robot apocalypse. But it seems snyart has taken her obsession for our robot overlords to a different level. She has undertaken a journey to doodle 365 robots over the course of a year marking February 2012 as the anniversary. Not surprisingly, 2012 is also the year the Mayans predicted our downfall. Coincidence? I don't think so.

Prepare to be assimilated below.

Sometimes a little drawing or doodle here and there is all you need to make your house/apartment/dwelling feel like a home. I just moved into a new place. Everything is set and good to go except for some missing finishing touches. My solution: Envelop. I discovered it the other day while looking for some decorative pillows for my couch. Take a look and shop around. Doodles on everything to make your home a happy home.
