Thanks it's a  saltwater croc...

Day 16: Crispy oak leaf I found on a path (I think it's a Quercus robur / petraea hybrid but could be wrong)

 

[Joan T]

E.J.H. yes, so far all of my Inktober sketches were done from life. Mmm...those teeth look scary. Nice ink work!

Kay, love the rooster...looks like he's got an attitude. The reflection on the top of that salt shaker is great!!

Triduana, looks like you have a lot of patience doing the edges of the leaves...very nice!

Robin, fun sketch with your model sitting up near the clock!

Day 16 was sketched sitting in a small park opposite Lincoln Center in NYC. It called for color too.

Day 17 was sketched with Noodler's water-soluble brown ink.

Scrape for day 18:

Excellent sketches everyone!!!

 

[Triduana]

I did two today for days 17 and 18:
Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna). I drew the same leaf from two different angles, one with a fine brush pen and one with my usual 0.1 Unipin. I'm back on track now.

 

[Triduana]

That leg looks sore, Kay!

 

[E.J.H.]

I use Unipins too, this one is also done with a 0.1.
Day 18. Scrape

Day 17 was sketched with Noodler's water-soluble brown ink.

Nice work! I love the wash of the brown ink.

Nice sketches, everyone!

Day 18 sketched with my fude pen at the Bayard Cutting Arboretum. At the edge of the dahlia garden is a cluster of fun birdhouses...almost like a condo development.

 

[Triduana]

Such a good sketch, Joan! I love all those bird boxes

Day 19: Beech (Fagus sylvatica)

i'm starting to struggle with the light now - I had found some delicate leaves to draw tonight but I can't see them well enough! I'll have to try a different part of the house tomorrow.

 

[E.J.H.]

Just managed day 19 what a day...
Anyway, ponytail, well, horsetail actually, same difference...

 

[KreativeK]

Good works all of you!
Here is 'bluff' for day 20 using STA Lictin 0.3 pen in Masters sketchbook 5.5x8.5:

 

[Triduana]

Good one E.J.H. - I wish I'd thought of that!

Lovely wide landscape, Kay!

 

[E.J.H.]

Great works everybody!
Here's my day 20. Bluff

Love your scenes, too!
