Uncontrollable Panic

Today's inktober prompt is Panic. I thought what would make me panic would be ink being spilt over my drawing.  A seriously big blob. Sounds simple.

Started drawing it up just a face, Alvin in my cartoon character, acting surprised. Stopped when it looked as if I was about halfway through the line work. Then I got out my favourite Japanese Zip ink. Dropped a few ink drops on the paper, swirled them around a bit and tried to blow them into radiating pattern. They didn't behave themselves. I got more ink on my fingers than the picture. Had to end up blotting off quite a .bit of ink. Such is life.

So you've got a double Panic The picture itself showing a person panicking, and me panicking trying to control the ink blot.
