BAM! my last two inktober pieces. I skipped four days, but the fact that I made 27 ink drawings is something I’m proud of tbh, considering my schedule. on to nopevember!
Some stingy, poisonous #inktober art.
Inktober day 22: ghost! As a kid I used to go to the section of the library with books about mysteries, supernatural events and ghost stories. There were always these creepy Victorian-era photos of “ghosts” that terrified me. Here’s one of those, but nice, because I now believe that ghosts just want to be understood.
A personal drawing for inktober.. last year, my kitty died, and I’m nowhere near over it. I miss her like crazy. This is based on a picture of me and her before her health declined sharply. I miss you Charlie!
Creepy spirit ladies of the forest for inktober.
Some decorative ladies for inktober… comfort-zoney stuff. Whatever it takes to complete this challenge, darnit!
What would your weapon of choice be in the zombie apocalypse? A baseball bat, or a slingshot? These are the important questions of life.
Some character art for inktober, featuring my favorite color, because pure b&w just doesn’t do it for me.
Inktober art for the prompts ‘treasure’ and ‘bait’… aren’t these screaming for mermaid art? Heck yeah!
Some inktober animal studies! love drawing them, although I need a lot of reference to do so… Saw a talk by Terryl Whitlatch in which she talks about the importance of studies and reference to draw animals, so I’m fully embracing this method for now!
Time for some #inktober updates! Here’s some of the artwork that I’ve been creating this month ~ more to follow in the coming days! Are any of you guys participating? How’s it going?
on the final day of inktober, I redrew my first inktober drawing, just to see how much more comfortabe i had become with inking. It felt so much more intuitive and enjoyable the second time around! So glad I kept up with inktober this year!
inktober sketches featuring my kitty. sadly she passed away shortly after these drawings were made. her health declined rapidly in a really short time span and soon she wasn’t eating at all. I’m so sad she’s gone, she was the most amazing kitty I’ve ever known. Rest in peace sweet Charlie <3
