Hi everyone! If you follow me, you know that I’ve decided to participate in this year’s Inktober challenge. So, here’s a short update on how it’s going. I’ve completed days 1-7 and so far I am not dead, so that’s something. I’ve actually really been enjoying the time spent drawing, as I usually don’t get around to doing it every day. I mentioned in my Youtube video that my main focus this year is to try and get over my own fear of making something bad. Usually I would never share something online that I don’t absolutely love, but during Inktober I simply don’t have the time to not post every piece I do. Although terrifying, it’s also a great exercise in taking some of the pressure off my regular work too.

I would love to hear about your experiences with Inktober if you are participating this year. I did a video talking more about some of these things and timelapses of all my Inktober drawings:

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned for next week’s Inktober update :)
