It took me awhile but I like it, as it took a very unexpected turn from my original idea. This year I have zero ambitions of actually finishing the whole inktober challenge, so each drawing is a win=)))) Watch for a version of this at the @artspot.yyc #under100artshow2021

This one was supposed to be a quick arm with bulging blood vessels sketch, but I got sucked into it and couldn't stop. Three hours later... Good thing it's a weekend😅. Anyways, I am not complaining, it was fun. I don't think I realize how much I love simply drawing with a pen.

#inktober2021day1
Crystal/hands
And so it begins. This year my plan is to do pen sketches only, combining prompts from both #inktober and #joaotuber. Maybe that's the charm to finally completing Inktober in its whole 31-day glory? As much as I love ink washes, they take too long and it's wishful thinking to even consider them this year. And what are you using for Inktober this year?

More watercolor fun! An overgrown fence next to my favourite coffee place. And yes, I loved the look of that fence, but having a comfy table to sketch at is oh so very important. Good coffee doesn't hurt either☕ 😋

Playing with a brush pen in my sketchbook. I love sketchbooks! Why? It's fun to make marks with no pressure to produce a finished drawing/painting. It works out? Great! It doesnt work out? Also great, I had fun doing it=) How do you feel about sketchbooking?

So, today I went on an errand and got distracted... Carrying your art supplies with you has it's downfalls😂.

On the other hand, outdoor sketching season is on! And I haven't missed the pink blossoms this year🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Hopefully, they'll stay on for a bit, as the weather seems to be picking up🤞

#randomquotesoftheday
When this quote crossed my way, it really resonated with me. I am a big fan of Mr. Poe and I got curios about it's provenance. Fun fact: turns out, in his story "Ligeia", Poe has slightly misquoted Francis Bacon, the original creator of this phrase.

Remember that abstract charcoal wash background I showed a while back? Well, I am done messing with it. And let me tell you charcoal and cold-press paper are not made for each other. Hot press all the way next time, the smoother the better=)

We used to blame beauty magazines for setting unrealistic beauty standards. Nowadays, we do it ourselves to people around us, sometimes, without even realizing it. I am guilty of this myself. With everyone doing it, I don't feel comfortable looking like a plain old me. Especially if I am teaching a virtual class and I am too tired or I just don't feel like putting on makeup. Recently, I have received a couple of undeserved compliments and it made me feel bad for propagating unrealistic beauty standards. Zoom "touch up" does wonders. I don't look like that. Neither did my 20-year old past self.
