Bloggers â€œNatalie Deeâ€ and â€œDrewâ€ have mastered the art of quirk. Both have been building an online empire. [Natalie Dee.com](http://www.nataliedee.com) provides thousands of childishly minimalistic and colourful drawings paired with the cutting edge satire and quirky humour needed to keep her blog fresh and hilarious everyday, and it is not the only blog that shares in targeting a niche audience with a sense of eccentric humour.

Natalie Dee.com is a **â€œSharing Machine Comicâ€** alongside other cult blogs Toothpaste For Dinner, Married to the Sea and SuperPoop, all written by either/both Drew and Natalie Dee. These four separate blogs are all have [individual illustration styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halftone), but they do resemble one another in terms of their wacky sense of humour.

If you just can't get enough of these comics (like me), all of these sites have merchandise with their graphics and illustrations for sale on their websites.

Delightful for even the most odd of oddballs!
