Inktober 2019 Days 6-10

I’m doing Inktober again in my small sketchbook Canson art book universal (14×21 cm / 4×6 in), in which I used half pages every day.

Day 6: “Husky”

Black and grey ink drawing of a smiling husky dog. The tongue is red and there is a grey circle around him.

Day 7: “Enchanted”

Drawing of a white stag in a forest. The animal is surrounded by trees of various shades of black to indigo to pale blue and the background is light pink.

Day 8: “Frail”

Black outline of Rosie the riverter, arm raised and rolling up her sleeve. The background if done with filler motifs in indigo.

On Ada Lovelace day, I chose to draw “Rosie the riveter”, an iconic representation of how crucial women are. Black ink brush pen, indigo ink Cambio brush pen.

Day 9: “Swing”

Silhouettes of a smiling man and woman dancing drawn on tracing paper glued to my artbook. The ink stamp and theme are visible underneath.

Silhouettes of a woman and man dancing, done on tracing paper with my black ink Pentel Brushpen.

Day 10: “Pattern”

Rows of grey dots of various sizes applied more or less regularly as to create depth

Probably my least interest work ever. But two things, first I was uninspired by the prompt, and second the October Sketchbox contained a rounded-tip grey pen that makes dots of various sizes according to the amount of pressure on the nib. Et voilà, I had my pattern in mere minutes!
