There are only three days left to Inktober! I found week four to be the hardest to keep up with. We had multiple illnesses in our family and many of the pieces I did this week are not my best work. But, I still think it is important to get in daily art practice even if it is only fifteen minutes. I write more about Inktober and why I think it is a good idea here. How did your week four go?
Day 22: Trail
My Path is a Tight Rope.
For day 22 of Inktober I was inspired by the exploits of Maria Spelterini this first woman to cross the Niagra George on a tightrope. Technical and brush pens on drawing paper
Day 23: Juicy
Just some simple technical pen and marker drawings of fruit. The grapes feature the contents of this Month’s ArtSnacks box. Technical pens, ink, and markers.
Day 24: Blind
For Inktober day 24 ‘blind’, I choose Lady Justice. Lady Justice the personification of Law is often shown as blindfolded to represent a lack of biases. I am not the best at figure drawing but I think I am getting better. Brush pen and technical pen.

Day 25: Ship
This was a less than a great day sick kids, sick hubby, and I was also down with a stomach bug. The image shows the Midgard Serpent in the depths below a Viking Knarr. Jörmungandr was thought to be a child of Loki and was a dragon so large he wrapped around all of Midgard. He is a component of Ragnarök the doom of the Gods.

Day 26: Squeak
A mouse having a very bad day. The reference is from the Wet Canvas reference library.

Day 27: Climb
Witches’ cats get together on Halloween to climb an old farm wall. I had time in the evening so I did a larger illustration. The outlines are in nib pen with India ink. I completed the piece with watercolors and markers.

Day 28: Fall
Black cats have fun with the fall leaves in this Inktober illustration. The outlines are in nib pen with India ink. I completed the piece with watercolors.

That is it for now.
Happy Art Journey,
The night sky on the “Climb” drawing is so beautiful! Looking at those amazing grapes made me hungry.. Ahaha, keep up the good work!
