Good day folks! To catch you up from yesterday, my desktop appears to be running ok today except for the issue that the wallpaper isn’t working and I am looking at a blank screen. It won’t even load any of my photos, which is strange. I’ll have to about that one…sigh. Today’s Inktober prompt isContinue reading “Inktober Day 6”

Inktober 2023 Day 4 – Introducing Lucy
Inktober Day 4. The Prompt is Dodge. Today’s Inktober prompt created a little bit of stumper at first because I wasn’t sure how I would portray that. Then I thought of all the times that our Chihuahua puppy, Lucy, dodged Mack to keep him from getting her bones and the inspiration hit me. I didContinue reading “Inktober 2023 Day 4 – Introducing Lucy”
Inktober Day 3
Inktober Day 3. The prompt is Path. I have a photo I took many years ago in an area what locals in New Jersey, call “down Jersey.” Down Jersey is along the Delaware Bay and is not really an area that people go to for getting away. Most folks go down the shore, whetherContinue reading “Inktober Day 3”
Inktober Day 2
Inktober Day 2. Prompt is Spider. I had a few different ideas about what to sketch for a spider. I settled on two spiders who are close friends. They made their webs next to each other and they are fishing for insects using fishing poles with light bulbs hanging from the poles. Their goal isContinue reading “Inktober Day 2”
Inktober 2023 Day 1
It’s Inktober….again….and that must mean that Instagram feeds will be blowing up with ink art the entire month of October. I don’t know how many years I have participated in Inktober. I have lost count. Usually I spend a little time coming up with ideas but this year, October sneaked up on me unexpectedly. ItContinue reading “Inktober 2023 Day 1”
Happy Halloween and the last day of Inktober!
Today is Halloween and it is also the last day of Inktober. I can’t say that I am not glad to Inktober go. It was fun to do the prompts but tough to squeeze it in. I am happy it is Halloween and I am sad to know that it is the end of October.Continue reading “Happy Halloween and the last day of Inktober!”
Inktober Day 30
Two days to go! I can’t believe October ends tomorrow! So sad because this is the best month of the year. The sad thing about October ending is we jump from Autumn right into the Christmas season without being able to enjoy Thanksgiving as an Autumn holiday. I mean, it’s nice to hear the ChristmasContinue reading “Inktober Day 30”
Inktober Day 29
Wow, almost at the end of October. We are now into Halloween weekend. Where does the time go? Today’s prompt is “Uh-oh.” For some reason I went right to thinking about the wildlife in the neighborhood, probably because our friendly neighborhood Little Blue Heron, was stalking through everyone’s flower beds, looking for “yum yums” likeContinue reading “Inktober Day 29”
Inktober Day 28
Inktober Day 28 and today’s prompt is “camping.” I got the idea for this sketch from the season. What do we do when we are camping? Usually a campfire is one of the evening activities that people do while camping. A campfire brings light to the dark. It can be used to cook food, marshmallows,Continue reading “Inktober Day 28”
