still around, still drawing
Oct. 6th, 2022 12:44 pmA quick post to reassure everyone that I'm still around and still drawing (and I'm only a few days behind on my "DrawTober" prompts).
Real life has just been a little hectic and I haven't got any photos uploaded yet.
I still dream of being one of those artists who does a whole monthly challenge using a consistent style and/or theme, but, thus far, my first three drawings of October don't even look like they were drawn by the same person because I keep changing my mind about how I should approach this.
For prompt one, I did a drawing with an ink wash over it but then thought that was more painterly and didn't fully fit the "draw" part of the challenge ... so for prompt two I thought I'd do cross-hatching but then remembered that I'm only good at cross-hatching on a small scale (when I can do a small flick motion) and it looks messy at the size I was working so I ended up going over that drawing with marker ... and then day three turned into a hodge-podge of a bunch of different pens and markers ... I like all three just fine, but there's definitely no consistent style/theme going on.
