Day 26, Ego

 

[KreativeK]

Very impressive!

for day 27 ‘snack’:

 

[E.J.H.]

Nice snack, looks sweet!

Mine is the healthy choice, a bit of a rush job (it's late here time for bed) so kept it simple

 

[KreativeK]

A much healthier snack for sure!

For day 28 here is 'camping' sketched this morning waiting in the doctor's clinic

 

[Triduana]

Good work everyone!
I've fallen massively behind now, but this is the furthest I've ever got so I'm feeling pretty good about that. I'll keep on going with my little project, but it's difficult for me to fit everything in at the moment.

For day 29 uh-oh prompt.

 

[Robin Gillis]

A six minute sketch is better than no sketch....

Great sketch Kay

 

[Joy]

I wish I could comment on all, as there is so much excellence and variety!

Kay M, all of your botanicals are always excellent. And the scurry mouse is adorable.
Kay (Smith) - Amazing that you could do so much daily that was so well drawn.

Now that I seemed to have picked all of the Kays. . .

Robin - Great tractor. That must have been very tedious.
Joan - Your urban sketches are so inspiring.

This is with a biro, or ballpoint pen, which I have never done before. It is on Canson 140CP watercolor paper sketchbook, 7 x 9. The reason it is a peach and yellow color with some scoring was b/c I had tried a challenge for another thread of some pumpkins on that paper. The attempt was so terrible I wiped the paint away and just thought I would do this quickly (for me, anyway) for Inktober and the Wildlife Challenge. It took less than 90 minutes.

E.J.H. I'm glad someone is thinking of healthy snacks.

Kay, I love your uh-oh idea for a sketch!

Robin, did you say pancakes??? I haven't had any in several years.

Joy, thanks. Fun critter sketch!!

Day 27 is a unicorn scarecrow decorating a tree in Bellport. They have people create them to decorate the town all month and then
people vote on their favorite.

Day 28 is a sketch of the woods at Avalon Park sketched using a twig and a bottle of ink.

Day 29 was done during an outdoor workshop in Times Square with Ian Fennelly from the UK. This is an unfinished sketch because there wasn't enough time to complete it on site. I will post the completed one below this. I added more color, details, and tones at home.

Day 30 was sketched today in Mattituck along the train tracks. This building was strange...none of the windows or doors ended at the same levels.

 

[Robin Gillis]

Oooooh, drawing with a twig sounds like fun,....yours looks nice

Here dinner is ready but hubby is snoozing....usually as soon as the sketchbook comes out he wakens but not this time. This is some some new ink I just got. It very nice Robert Oster Fire and Ice....cool blue, very nice

Day 30 'gear' prompt using Uniball Vision Elite pen.

Day 31, ‘farm’, sketched an old barn

Everyone’s work is amazing!
A nice way to use your paper again, Joy. So cute.

 

[Joan T]

Robin, love the sketch. That is a great ink color...a nice subtle blue.

Kay, good job on the gear shift, but you know how I'm drawn to old barns!

 

[Robin Gillis]

This was fun. Do you have other monthly group threads sometime?

 

[Jo Castillo]

Can't comment individually, but congrats on all the great Inktober sketches. I love pen and ink......
