Octopus Drawing

While working on this drawing, I was thinking about how an octopus looks like it could be an alien. I would love to see one IRL. They’re just so cool and different. It’s fascinating to really observe the details, which is one of the many reasons I love art. It encourages me to pay close…

Almost at the End!

I can’t believe there are only a couple days left in the month. I was hesitant to do this challenge, but I’m so glad I did because I got a lot of practice and feel motivated again.

Today’s Drawing

I can’t believe this month is already almost over! It’s really flown by, like the entire year before it. It seems as I get older, the time goes by faster every year.

The Purge: Election Year

My partner and I recently watched this movie, it seemed a good fit for the season. We’d watched the first one in the series a long time ago, but I didn’t realize there were more! We have since also watched the Anarchy one and I liked that one, too. I was surprised that they seemed…

First Layers

It’s the weekend, so I decided to really give this drawing study a significant amount of time. This is what I have so far, using Derwent Inktense Pencils.

Today’s Drawing

I wanted to challenge myself and did this sketch entirely with pen, so it looks pretty messy. But I kind of like how it turned out.

Young Duck Pen Drawing

This drawing is based on a picture I took in Pennsylvania. There were so many ducks swimming around in the stream but this was the only young one and it was all alone.

Ducks <3

I’m pretty sure my partner took this photo that I used as a reference. We were at Epcot eating at one of the tables you stand up at and out of nowhere this duck and the cute ducklings come out of the bushes and over to us! I kept this as a pencil drawing because…

Hawk

It’s been a long time since I’ve done just a pen drawing. I forgot how relaxing and enjoyable it is!

Art Done While Recovering
The great thing about art is that it can be done even when you’re recovering from surgery! Not right away, it took a good 2 weeks for me to start to be able to move around and not be completely uncomfortable and a bit more time to be in a position where I was able…

How to Prepare for a Successful Monthly Art Challenge

I remember back when my sister first told me about Inktober. She said ‘Yeah, you do a drawing.’ And I was like ‘Oh, one for the month?’ Of course she laughed and then told me it was a daily thing. It was incomprehensible to me. That’s how slow I used to be at art. That…

Inktober Sketches

Every October I do Inktober, but in my own way … I just use it as inspiration to do a challenge. I’ve been playing around with some loose ideas in my sketch book. I don’t know if I’ll be using all of them, some days I’m definitely going to do something quick and easy, but…

Drawings

I felt like working on some drawings for a change. I think I’m going to add minimal color to them.
