The final day for Inktober has arrived. The topic is Flex. There are probably many options flexible, so many modern terms end in flex and it is often used in modern slang. Too many options and I just went back to thinking about the traditional flexing your muscle. I think the modern world might say show us your guns, but back in my youth flex would undoubtedly mean showing strength in an arm muscle.
So I had a subject to draw. I looked back at my most popular
Instagram posts this year. Not only was the quality a bit disappointingcompared with last year the number of views was way down. Clearly to be popular
it needed to have colour, Further I don’t think people liked me showing the
pens I used either. However all this fitted in with my objectives this year.
Have fun, try out a range of techniques, show my working and the tools I used.
Yet I also wanted to honour what I thought was the objective of inktober to
have an excuse to practice your ink work, So I’ve tried a more tradtional ink line
work for my final drawing.
It wasn’t till nightime that I actually got to finish this.
Congratulation to all those artists that participant in Inktober this year, no matter how much. Especially to those that managed to draw every prompt everyday. Hope you all had fun.
