Inktober 2018 – Day Nineteen: Scorched

A ridiculously quick one today. I knew this month was going to be hard to finish every sketch, and today was the hardest yet. But here we are! One sketch, finished.

Inktober 2018 – Day Eighteen: Bottle

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m very excited about the revamp (/remake?) of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. So, to celebrate that, and Halloween, here’s a potion bottle.

Inktober 2018 – Day Fifteen: Weak

I wasn’t inspired by today’s prompt word. Instead I had a think about the things I feel confident drawing and went from there. My go to thing to draw is trees, especially branches, in fact especially where the branches get thinner and (I guess) weaker?

Inktober 2018 – Day Twelve: Whale

Here’s a wailing dog in a sou’wester aka a whaling hat.

Inktober 2018 – Day Eleven: Cruel

Just a quick one today. When I read “cruel” I thought of Cruella De Vil, so here she is.

Nothing earthy shattering today, but when you do 31 drawings they can’t all be winners.

Inktober 2018 – Day Ten: Flowing

When I read “flowing” I think of long flowing hair. And then I think of this photo I finished a couple of years ago so I thought I’d have another go.

Today was just a quick sketch so this and the original are hardly comparable but it’s fun to do nonetheless.

Inktober 2018 – Day Nine: Precious

Precious flowers against a brick wall.

Inktober 2018 – Day Eight: Star

A quick one today. Although I’ve got the day off there’s a lot of life admin tasks that are making me nervous so I still feel busy.

I love Islamic art so thought I’d take inspiration form them today. Of course, artists who create intricate and beautiful pieces have the best tools and mathematical reasoning skills, whereas I used a Farrow and Ball paint sample booklet as my ruler.

Inktober 2018 – Day Seven: Exhausted

inktober

Exhausted certainly is the word today. Work is relentless at the moment, but hey, at least I like my job. Today I have a rare evening with my boyfriend, so here’s a rushed sketch of our feeties while we resist falling asleep too early and watch Guardians of the Galaxy 2. I guess things aren’t so bad.
