INKTOBER is Upon Us!
Inktober is an initiative by illustrator, Jake Parker to help fellow artists (amateurs and professionals alike) get in the habit of drawing EVERY DAY.
Started in 2009, it has become a highly popular yearly event on Instagram.
How does it work?
Simple... check out the Inktober daily prompts (scroll down) and simply do the drawings per day and in order, in your sketchbook. After you're done with the daily drawing, take a picture (make it a good one in good lighting and do the appropriate editing), hashtag it #INKTOBER when you post it to Instagram. That's it.
What supplies do we use?
Ink. In whatever form you prefer. Copic multiliner, Pentel Pens, white ink pens, Sakura pens, Micron pens, Prismacolor pens, or good 'ol ballpoint pens. Any color, doesn't matter. As long as it's not pencil or charcoal. You can even use a dip pen or brush with India ink or Sumi ink. Scroll down on Jake Parker's page about Inktober to check out the cool stuff he uses. But don't think you have to buy anything. Like I've mentioned, I use ballpoint pen for my professional artwork and I do just fine with it ;)
What do I get in return for doing all these drawings?
1. The satisfaction of knowing YOU CAN DO IT.
2. Oh yeah, and THREE (3) extra credit grades at the end of October!
What if I don't have Instagram?
No worries, you simply do the drawings in your sketchbook, date them and label them with the matching prompt and you're good to go!
So... October starts SUNDAY... get to it!! :D Can't wait to see what you do!!
