Inktober 2018: Take Home an Original!

This is my third year participating in the Inktober challenge - by the end of the month, I'll have finished 31 original ink drawings after doing one every day! I'm relying heavily on my favorite Pentel Pocket brush pen as always with a little use of multiliners for tidying details. The spread I presented last year showcased a lot of what I can do with inks, so I hope to continue that trend this year with what I've learned since then! Here's #1:

As always, everyone will be able to see these drawings here on Patreon, on Twitter, and on other sites I frequent as I will be posting them throughout the month. Patrons will get to be part of my Inktober journey in a special way! Those with Sketchbook Access - that's only $5+ per month - will be receiving higher resolution copies of all the drawings in the October sketch pack, which goes out in early November. Bug Club level patrons will each be able to choose an original drawing from the complete selection as their special gift, delivered in November.

To keep things fair, all Bug Club patrons' names will be scrambled to determine the order of choice. Each eligible patron also gets to choose a second image of which to receive a signed print, so even if you someone ahead of you chooses an original image you wanted, you'll still be able to get a physical copy of the artwork from me. All 31 ink drawings will be available to select in November!

I'll be posting the Inktober drawings throughout the month so you can see what the choices are shaping up to be! This is perhaps the best time of year to join my Patreon campaign at any tier level, and if you enjoy my creations and want the work to continue, I humbly request you consider helping me make it for even just $1 a month. I'm delighted to share my journey as an artist with such a kind and generous creative community and am always thankful to everyone who has paved a little more path for me to walk on, however they are able to express support.  Be well as autumn descends, keep cozy, and STAY BUGGY! 🐛💖
