A new holiday tradition for artists, both armature and
professional, is to participate in month long drawing challenges. Inktober is
for those you are strictly staying within the pen and ink medium. Drawlloween
is for any medium. Each provides a calendar in which suggested themes for each
day are given. Once your image is ready you post in on social media with a hash
tag so that others who are participating can see what you what you came up
with. Aside from that there are no rules. In years past I followed Inktober’s
website and posted images to his blog there. This year I decided to do the
Drawlloween calendar, but to still stick to an ink brush as my medium. I was
successful in doing one a day and here you can see my whole collection for the
month. Happy Halloween!
