Inktober 2020 week 4

18 humming bird

Hi there, how are you?

Week 4 of Inktober finished. It’s quite interesting to see this evolve. I didn’t have much of a plan at the beginning except to use my new ink. Some are working better than others but over all I’m happy with the way it’s going.

Day 18 – hummingbird. (above)The fuchsias are almost finished now but there are still a few flowers hanging on to remind us of summer. I love drawing the petal shapes and frills.

Day 19 – seahorse. Seahorses happily swimming around in the sea. My attempt to have them floating in a background rather than the usual blankness of a sketchbook page

Day 20 – cat. Taking time to smell the flowers. Usually I avoid cats because they’re difficult to draw, I started small here with a silhouette.

Day 21 – rabbits. Washing up before a meal. The youngling wanted me to draw a pumpkin, I embellished a little (hehehe.)

Day 22 – wild rose. Holding on to the summer, remembering little birds in the hedgerows

Day 23 – mouse. Little mice having fun amongst the poppy pod’s. Mouse was on a prompt list and I like drawing mice so I drew three and some poppy pods to climb over.

Day 24 – guinea fowl. I love watching these birds, so comical and the hair! May have gone a bit dark on this one, it still makes me smile though.

Every day I wake up wondering what to draw, usually by the end of the day it’s solved and drawn. Hopefully I’ll have enough ideas to last to the end of the month.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by. Till next time, have fun x
