Advance Inktober warning: I will be limiting time spent on photo taking & photo correcting, depending on the busyness of the day. It is easily a time sucker for me. I apologize in advance for not-so-great shots. I have also decided to throw caution to the wind (blown to the next state yesterday) and try different pens and techniques. It's likely some of these are going to be kind of awful and I'm (mostly) fine with that.
For day one, a Tombow water soluble brush pen. Naturally, Milo moved seconds after the pen touched the page. Maybe 20 minutes later both pets were restless & the light faded, so we headed inside with an incomplete drawing. The splotch is from today. It's an iffy first page, but it IS a start.
Day 2 - Added another magnet to this ongoing ballpoint pen project. This is in my comfort zone.
Day 3 - It's supposed to frost tonight, so I picked a bunch of tomatoes. They lay on the counter and pretty much said "We are day 3." I stuck with simple lines and used a few of the recently purchased Staedtler fine liners. I need more of these pens.
Three down. 28 to go. Oh, and I almost forgot the whole hashtag thing - #inktober. I hope I did that right. Stop laughing.

Just coming off a sketch challenge, I doubt if I will do Inktober. I like yours -- and I liek posting the good-bad-ugly. I did it like crazy when I did my sketch challenge!
Thanks Kate. I started the 75 day challenge without telling anyone and lost my way around day 5. Yep - I definitely suck at follow through. So, now it's a shorter challenge and I'm committed to sharing the pages no matter what. More good-bad-ugly to follow!
