My name is Erick Jhan Balan Trinidad. I'm currently a sign artist at Trader Joe's. I draw for work and I draw for fun as well. Here you'll mostly find reblogs and on rare occasions some of my illustrations and/or graphic design works.

Inktober Day 14 | Fierce Here’s my interpretation of Divine in the film Pink Flamingos. Unfortunately I messed up when I inked the original. So I took it into Procreate on the iPad to ink it digitally. Also, I took creative liberties and replaced her gun with a banana.
