I am happy to be able to say that I m still going strong with inktober even though some prompts are getting really challenging.
Inktober 10 Snow. My daughters are enthusiastic snowboarders so I didn’t have a shortage on action shots to choose from. I quite like this one for its typical snowboard posture. Ink wash and prera fountain pen in Stillman and birn sketchbook.
Inktober 11. Pattern. The best patterns anre always found in nature as seen in this cabbage. Lamy safari fountain pen and inkwash.
Inktober 12. Dragon. I was totoally dumbstruk wih the prompt dragon and this poor fellow is the result of my struggle. Prera fountain pen and inkwash.

The next three inktober contributions. I am still finding it difficult. It is as though my originality has dried up. I think a good idea would be to continue doing inktober drawings until the end of the year. By then I should at least have found some zing.
Inktober 4: Build. Ink and pen in stillman and birn sketchbook.
This wheelbarrow has seen better days, but it can still get the job done.

I couldn’t come up with my own reference for a husky dog, so our German shepherd was the next best thing.
Inktober 1,2,3.
I have decided to join Inktober this year. A whole month of using mainly ink. I haven’t sketched in such a long time and I can feel the stiffness of my arm, the laziness in my observation and even my artistic interpretation is rusty. So this Inktober will be a good challenge to get back into the groove.
