Inktober 2017 – the first week

October brings us to the social media drawing challenge “Inktober”. I don’t usually go for Twitter/Instagram keyword challenges, but as pen & ink is at the core of what I do I joined in Inktober last year and found it a really interesting exercise. The rules are simple – draw and post an  inked drawing to social media every day throughout October (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or whatever else you use), including the hashtags #Inktober and #Inktober2017. There’s a list of optional daily prompt words which you can use to spark ideas or not.

I’ve been getting back into sketching a lot lately so was looking forward to getting stuck in with my pens and brush-pens again this year. I’m posting daily images on Twitter and Instagram @StudioNIB, and will post a weekly summary here on my blog, Facebook etc. Here’s my daily posts from this first week.

More to come!! Follow my daily updates on Twitter and Instagram @StudioNIB
