I got a bit behind in my sketches and in posting, but my goal was to sketch the entire month of Inktober......and I did......just under the wire.
And now for the finale......
And this will be the inside cover page when I stitch the book together.
Like most artists who I have followed in the past, after 31 days, I am ready to add color to my sketches! Working in nothing but pen and ink was fun and a learning experience, but I am ready for color!
What did I learn? I learned that I have a lot to learn when working with pen and ink and how to shade and how to draw textures. I need to sit down with a few good tutorials and practice. Next time, I think I would like to add washes. I will probably go back and tweak a few of my sketches as I am never quite satisfied. Or maybe I will leave them alone and chalk it up to experience. It will be nice to have all my sketches for the month bound together.
It was a great challenge, lots of fun and I am ready to work on something new.

All your efforts have been much-appreciated by us! Checking in each day to see if there was a new one, made it fun for us! I stand amazed, always, at the beautiful ways you express yourself . . . not only with ink, or whatever you use, but also the heart of your work - that always reveals your unique personality, and brings out some emotion in the beholder!
