I've been really good about doing an ink drawing for each day of Inktober so far! In fact, I've used the Inktober prompts more than I thought I would. Here they are, if you haven't seen them yet.

I thought it would be hard enough to just get an ink drawing done each day, but I am finding that using the prompts has helped me to stay inspired. Usually, I just search Sktchy and my Sktchy queue for photos that correspond to the prompts. I also love seeing how other artists are interpreting the prompts!

Here are my latest Inktober entries:

Have you been participating in Inktober this year? If so, are you using the prompts? I can't seem to limit myself to just using ink, but I have tried to for the most part. Sometimes, I can't keep myself from adding watercolor though. And, I've decided to not stress it and just keep trying to participate in Inktober!

October is Inktober month! What is Inktober?

Every October, artists all over the world take on the InkTober drawing challenge by doing one ink drawing a day the entire month.

Jared Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits.

I normally draw in ink without using pencil first, but I decided to participate in Inktober this year to work on my hatching skills and drawing without always adding watercolor.

There are prompts for each Inktober day, but I don't always use them.

Here are my first few Inktober attempts.
