This year I'm going to participate in Inktober, the worldwide challenge to make a drawing for each day in October. Some people do color or digital drawings, but I'm going to stick with the traditional approach of inking, partially because I need practice with inking drawings, partially because I really need practice with sketching drawings before inking them. So I have a fine-tip marker, 07 and 05 G2 pens, a pencil, an eraser, and a new sketchpad ready to go.
For the past several... years, I guess, I've been putting off drawing, which has been taxing on my soul. I love doodling, but you have to be in a very specific environment to doodle without drawing garbage, and I haven't been in such an environment—sitting in a classroom during a lecture—for a long time. And I miss it. So this is a great chance to reignite my passion of drawing, maybe learn some new techniques, and possibly find new chances to draw in the future.
My siblings and even daughter are even joining me, so I'm excited to get into this mode.
Let Inktober begin!
