Inktober Part…Four ?

Posted on Updated on

I wouldn’t say I gave up on Inktober, I just got off track and after that it wasn’t my main focus any more. So it’s taken me until now to accumulate enough drawings, that I just happened to do in pen and ink, to finish the 31 drawings for Inktober. Hope you enjoy:


Drawing #31

I drew this on my last day on my trip to Vancouver over MLK weekend. It feels a bit flat, but I still love the way it turned out. Faber-Castel Black SX Pen & Gouache Embellishments.


Drawing #30

I took advantage of the long weekend and rode the train up to Vancouver for three days to do some drawing and photography. This was my first drawing I did…It was so cold that it was hard to stay outside to finish it.

Also, look for my photographs from Vancouver on the Photography Collections page, coming soon.


Drawing #29

Male and female torso and arm studies. I love the way the whole page of them looks together, but here are closer pictures of each one, below:

Drawing #28

A drawing I did of the Utah State Capitol Building, when I went home for winter break. My buddy Esteban and I drove around for a while, ended up at the capitol, drew it in the freezing cold, and then went to Siegfried’s german deli to eat when it started snowing and we had to stop drawing.

Nothing more than some doodles really.


Drawing #26

Lake Union, Seattle. I love this one.


Drawing #25

image5.JPG

The seam in the cement, the shrub at the base of the walkway pillar, and the black and grey scribbles in the foreground on the left…look like a man sitting with a fishing pole…or so my aunt tells me. (That’s called apophenia)

Drawing #23

Red Square on UW campus. Perspective is really off…just keep moving. Nothing to see here.


Drawing #22

These were really fun to draw. A VW bug in the parking lot next to my building, from two different angles.

I actually liked these more before I inked them, when they were just pencil. Here I tried something new. I used these box grids to help me visualize how the cars would fit in there. It helped with getting the perspective (almost) right.


Thanks for all your support! Its been a fun project. I’ll try again in October.
