Inktober Wrap-up
Here's the final batch of drawings I made for Inktober this year.
What a month it was! With a pending house move and deadlines to contend with, October proved a pretty hectic month all around. I wasn't sure it was wise to attempt another daily drawing activity like #Inktober straight on the back of the September House of Illustration challenge, but pen and ink is my favourite medium, how could I not? I love the challenge, even though time was limited and I didn't have chance to prepare, pre-plan or draw anything before the start.
Because of this, I decided to stick with the prompt words, some of which caused a lot of head scratching - I didn't want to draw blandly comic renderings of the prompts, though some clearly lent themselves to such approaches than more nuanced interpretations.
