Inktober 2021 Keepers!

My Favourite Ink Paintings from an Inktober Challenge
I completed a ton of ink paintings and drawings for the Inktober challenge in 2021. I am sharing the pieces here now that still feel very special to me and which I decided to keep in my website portfolio. The others can only be seen on my Instagram feed back then! I enjoyed painting in ink in this way and had not done much before and was a bit of a test to see if I could handle it with these kinds of subjects to the prompts that were given. Art challenges are great, it's amazing to me that I did so many detailed works daily for that entire month. I feel inspired and motivated whenever I see these pieces and will look into getting the originals framed this year instead of hidden away in my studio drawers!
