I meant to do a loose sketch in #Procreate, to plan the composition so I’d be confident with today’s #Inktober. I got carried away… but I kinda love them. Day 27: DUMB #Inktober2026 #DigitalArt

I tried a bunch of things for the 26th #Inktober prompt: ZIP. I spent forever drawing someone zipping a hoodie over their face. I moved onto a little old lady zipping around on a Vespa. I hated everything I tried. So here we are. A little bat zipping over a drawing page. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🦇 #Inktober2026 #Bat

Something a little different today. I started with blobs of ink on paper, and then blew them around, drew in and on it, spattered… made a mess. Then I imported it to #Procreate and finessed it so it’s a combination of #TraditionalInk and #DigitalInk for Day 25 of #Inktober : FRACTURE #Inktober2026

Good morning. I have a busy day! I need to go vote, I’m off to a fancy craft market, and I’ve drawn the 22nd prompt : BAKE #inktober #medieval #Rabbit

Today the prompt is: DAPPER Ink was an unforgiving mistress for this one. #Inktober #inktober2026 #bulldog

Today the prompt was: BEACON I drew this traditionally with ink, but just before posting I wanted to see what would happen if I darkened some of mid tones, so I put it in #Procreate just to see and really liked the change. #Inktober #Woodland

Here is the only-ink version if you’re interested! With Alt Text because my alt-text on the first post didn’t … post? #Inktober #Beacon

Today, the 21st day of Inktober is: HERO I bet I could finesse this into a tattoo design… 🤔 #Inktober #Inktober2026 #Cat

We’re finally getting movement on the washroom repairs (it’s been over a month since the ceiling filled with water). Today an electrician came & we asked in passing if he could look at this weird hall switch that only half worked…when he opened & tested it, IT SPARKED. It’s been sparking for YEARS 🔥

Today’s prompt for Day 20: LOUNGE I went off a bit in the alt text… #inktober #Inktober2026 #Lounge

130 million on a referendum. That could've paid for 150 family doctors. Or 188 teachers. Or two brand-new schools. Instead, the UCP printed 45 million ballots. Imagine if they governed for Albertans instead. This referendum was held to appease the 25% which it didn't. #abpoli #ableg #UCP #Alberta

I did something I never do today. I ripped my first try out of my sketchbook and put that paper in the scrap pile. Definitely a case of “knew what I wanted” but also “how *does* one draw a cat?” Day 19 prompt: CONFUSED #Inktober #Inktober2026 #Cat

Today is another tough one. But here we go with the prompt for Day 18: FLIGHTLESS #Inktober #Inktober2016

Whoa. This is literally AND figuratively true 😅💔

When the cold creeps in and the wind is howling, the only cure is to curl up with a feline friend. Ghosts and specters enjoy a good lap cat, after all, they were only human once too. 🍂🐈‍⬛

Wow. We walked right in! No line! It took longer to fill out the voting form than it did to sign in! (Mayor, 10 city councillors, 9 school trustees, 7 parks board, 2 plebiscite and 3 budget questions!!) #Vancouver

A peek at a Fire Salamander; Dormant for most of the year, during breeding and spawning seasons water meadows and swampy areas briefly come alive with the lights of their fires, often mistaken for will o the wisps or corpse lights.

I’ll be honest. Today was a tough one. I started drawing a giraffe, a monster, a horrible rabbit-thing, a top-hat-wearing cartoonish thing… and decided to go simple. Day 16 Prompt: GANGLY. I used good ol’ reliable Microns 05 and 005. #Inktober #Inktober2026

Making props today! I tried a new method of paper distressing where I edged everything, then dipped them into one of three ink washes I set up in snack baggies and a Ferraro Roche box. Pro: fast! Good level of interest/difference! Con: soooo messy! (I’m extra proud of the squashed bugs!)

Nothing special. Just a little watercolour painting of an onion, a little green apple and a lime. #Watercolour #TradArt

Walls Have Eyes. Another oldie from 2021 or so. I still like this one a lot. I’ll be posting my full #LightboxExpo2026 catalog tomorrow, so keep an eye out for that. #illustration #horrorart #darkart #conceptart

This one is definitely in my style, no pushing myself to try something new today 😅 Today’s prompt: Hooray #Inktober #Inktober2026 #MicronPen

Day 12: TOSS I don’t think of myself as particularly superstitious… but I still toss salt over my shoulder too. I drew this in ink, then tossed it into Procreate to finesse the shading. #Inktober #Inktober2026 #digitalArt #TradArt

Day 11: RESCUE Just a quick one today. I actually spent a lot of time with inks making props for a DnD game! So I don’t feel bad using #Procreate for #Inktober #inktober2026. I challenged myself to only use the Studio Ink Pen!
