• Inktober 2017- Week 1 Drawings

    Hi everyone! It’s October, which means it’s time for Inktober! And that means I need to draw a new ink drawing every day of the month of October. Last year was the first time I participated in Inktober, but I had to stop drawing and posting around mid month. It is my goal this year to make it to the end of the month. Even though I have art ink pens I could use to draw with, I decided not to use them the first week of Inktober and use a ball point pen and, later in the week, a black gel pen to make it easy on myself. I’m…

    It’s the last full week of November and I realized I didn’t make a post about the last sketches I did for Inktober! (In my defense, I was very busy this past month) For the previous posts about my Inktober sketches, you can find week one here and week two here.

Here…

During week 2 of Inktober, I started the week feeling not so great because of my cold. I ended up taking a few days to rest and, after I felt better, I began drawing again. I never drew a life drawing with a ball point pen before, so I spent most of the week drawing sketches of stuff around my house, including my dog Brownie. Although I’m not pleased with almost half the sketches I did during week 2, the most disappointing drawing I…

  • #Inktober 2016 Sketches- Week 1

    I originally planned this week’s post to be about sewing, but thanks to a cold, I was unable to finish any post about sewing or finish any current sewing projects. Instead, this week’s post will be dedicated to my Inktober sketches! I heard from an artist friend about Inktober on Instagram and I always wanted to participate. If nobody has heard of Inktober or knows what it is, Inktober is when an artist draws a drawing or sketch every day through the month of October using ink. I’ve seen artists use ink makers while others use a ball point pen. Although I always wanted to participate in Inktober, I never…
