"Every October, artists all over the world take on the InkTober drawing challenge by doing one ink drawing a day the entire month. I created InkTober in 2009 as a challenge to improve my inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavour with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year." Jake Parker

I've picked up new brush pens, felt tip pens, calligraphy nibs and inks.  I have been exploring, experimenting and am really excited about what is showing up creatively.  If you are an Instagram addict like myself, search the hashtag #inktober and peruse all the fabulous ink work!

I've been planning to commit to drawing, painting, sketching everyday for a while now and have yet to start ... until today!! Luckily I came across this great challenge for the month of October called Inktober founded originally by a very talented artist Jake Parker.
