This past October, artmejo hosted it’s first ever Inktober contest through an online campaign. Participants were asked to tag @artmejo and hashtag #inktoberjo18 to partake in the contest.
With over 1100 entries across Instagram and facebook, our editors followed the hashtag and compiled their favourite participating entries from 31 different artists:

After a long sigh, the doctor took off his glasses to look me in the eye indicating that he is about to say something very serious, then semi-whispered: “basically, I guess what I’m saying is that, with the medication you were prescribed, I don’t have a scientific reason why you didn’t have an internal bleeding and somehow lived through your pregnancy, nor why out your 4 fetuses, she was the one who survived.” Hamdella for nine fantastical years kid! May you never lose the wonder!
