Anyone else doing Inktober 52?

Here is my sketch for ‘Crunch’: Inktober 52 is a year long activity with a prompt a week. For the first time, I have a ‘streak’ going (I’ve done 3 prompts in a row)! If you are participating- how are you finding it? And did you do anything during the ‘free time weeks’ I

Not a sketch, but I colored this yesterday

I think this community might appreciate it

Where do you draw?

I’m loving all the sharing that’s been happening lately- thanks everyone who is contributing to all the art communities here! 🙌 It’s gotten me thinking about ‘where’. As in ‘where’ do you sketch/draw/create?

Do you use toned paper?

I drew this dark-skinned fairy on coloured paper, this is cardstock, just to push the toned-paper experience a notch further. I was curious about what else becomes possible when you go darker than standard toned paper.Next time I'll add black pen to see what else is possible.

Pollen people

I was toying around with this idea where every anther on flowers is kinda like it's own planet of pollen people. They have a religion where they worship bees who come to select the chosen to take to their version of heaven.

One face a day art journal

My brain works in a mysterious way, so I have a lot of thematic art journals. In this case, this is an art journal created from a shop catalogue. I primed the pages with white gesso and used it to practice painting faces in acrylics. I had no idea what I was getting into when I s

Who did Inktober this year?

For those not familiar with it, Inktober is an annual challenge with a prompt a day for the month of October to encourage drawing. It’s not without its critics, and lots pf spin offs have developed, but I’ve found it a great way to draw more and expand my content! Have you
