Week 3 Inktober #inktober #inktober2018

Hello creative friends.  I hope you are having a good week.  My week is going well.  Inktober is in its third week and I am still going strong and keeping up with a drawing a day.  Here are my drawings for week three of Inktober.

I'm having fun doing these drawings, but it's a challenge to get the detail and contrast with just one pen.  Not sure why I started drawing these with a pen, but decided to continue the challenge with the one pen.  I did add a little touch of white on a couple of them where I felt it was needed, but for the most part just used the one pen.  And I'm surprised after so many drawings it hasn't run out.  I'm curious to see now how many more drawings I can do with that one pen, LOL.  Have you been doing the inktober challenge?  If so I would love to hear about how you are doing with it.  I hope you have a good week.  Until next time, happy creating.

Week 2 Inktober #inktober #inktober2018

Hello creative friends.  I hope everyone is having a good week.  My week is going well. Another week of inktober has gone by and so far I've been able to do a drawing a day.  Here are the drawings I completed for the second week of Inktober.

It's been fun creating these drawings and hopefully I will be able to complete a drawing a day every day of October.  Are you participating in Inktober? If so I would love to hear about your progress. Thank you for stopping by.  Until next time, happy creating.

Week 1 Inktober #inktober #inktober2018

Hello creative friends.  I hope everyone is having a good week.  My week is going well.  So far I have been able to do an ink drawing a day for inktober.  Here are the drawings I completed this week.

One thing I've learned is it isn't easy doing a drawing with just a pen.  I struggle with the shading.  But I am having fun creating these drawings.  Have you been participating in Inktober too?  If so I would love to see what you are creating.  Thank you for stopping by and visiting my blog.  I hope you have a great week.  Until next time, happy creating.

Playing with Art Supplies and Inktober

Hello creative friends.  I hope everyone is having a good week.  Mine is going well.  I haven't posted in some time since I haven't been doing much to post about.  Recently I decided that I would just play around with my supplies and create something, anything.  So I grabbed my Birds and Blooms magazines and created a couple of drawings using different products I have.


I created a picture of a hummingbird using Twinkling H2O.

A picture of a bird using colored pencils.

A picture of a bird using colored pens.

A picture of a butterfly using markers.

And a picture of a bird using a black pen to kick off Inktober.  

Me and my granddaughter decided to participate in Inktober this year and hopefully we will be able to do a drawing a day for 31 days.  My plan is to do different animals and post each week the drawings that I completed that week.  I want to brush up on my drawing skills, so I decided to start with a bird, since that is what I've been drawing lately.  Thank you for stopping by and I hope you decide to join in Inktober as well.  I hope everyone has a great week.  Until next time, happy creating.
