Inktober Day 7

Today’s Inktober prompt is “trip.” Now this is a word that could be interpreted in a few different ways. For instance, is someone taking a trip? Can you use luggage? An airplane? A train station? Platform 9 3/4? Animal House road trip? Business trip? The word “trip” then takes on a more vacation or travelContinue reading “Inktober Day 7”

Inktober Day 5

Today’s prompt is “flame.” Since it is October and the month of Halloween, I went back to one of my earlier pieces and redrew it in ink. I have done a cauldron a few times in October and have done them a few different ways. It has also popped up in my Little Witch Series.Continue reading “Inktober Day 5”

Inktober Day 2

For Day 2 of Inktober, I am sure that I am not the only one that used a mouse for today’s prompt, “scurry.” Whenever many of us hear the word scurry, we think of mice scooting across the floor. Which usually leads to someone screaming and if you have a cat, mayhem. I played aroundContinue reading “Inktober Day 2”

Witch

The fourth prompt is “witch” and it happens to be one of my favorites.

(Mom was placed in Assisted Living back in 2018 for memory care.Continue reading “Witch”

I’d love to wallow some more in post-Halloween, pre-Thanksgiving vibes and enjoy November for November. It’s hard toContinue reading “Haunted”

Monster Self Portrait

This is another sketch in my “skull” sketchbook. I love this refillable journal. It’s black Italian leather and it was made by Innovative Journaling. It comes with two refills of Arches Text Wove paper. The nice thing about this refillable journal is that I can use the paper that comes with it, or make myContinue reading “Monster Self Portrait”

Happy Labor Day

We are less than a month away from Inktober and that means the return of the Little Witch and her Dragon. They are taking a vacation at the shore and are enjoying their Labor Day on the beach. Dragons love the sun on their hides. The laughing gulls are wondering if there are any handoutsContinue reading “Happy Labor Day”
