Inktober Days 1-7

[tarlanx]

These are so dreadful I nearly decided not to post at all. As it is I've just put up small versions so everyone can look away fast. I haven't drawn anything on paper in 20 years, but at least there is always a chance I can improve... if I ever find more than a few minutes to spare. I spent about 15 mins on the first using the prompt SWIFT - because I did it so fast. All rest were done in 2-3 minutes tops with minutes to spare before I had to go bed - or midnight! Oh, the irony!

Day 1: swift, Day 2: divided, Day 3: poison, Day 4: underwater, Day 5: long, Day 6: sword, Day 7: shy

You did the first one in 15 minutes? Are you kidding, that's awesome! I usually take an hour to do a portrait like that. These are all great speed drawings!

Also, I love that you used the prompt "swift" for a timed drawing. I'm thinking of using the "blind" prompt (day 24) in a similar way - no looking down at the paper while drawing. *g*

It's so rough and out of proportion!

I'm glad these are not a total disaster but I do wish I was organized enough to leave more free time for drawing. I keep saying - one day....

I agree, if you don't have much time, speed drawing is the way to go and yours are e very good start for someone who hasn't drawn for so long!


Ho, the "blind" prompt is a great idea! It rarely turns out good, but it's great fun to do and forces to go for simpler lines (or even for a "single line" drawing) in order not to loose the place!

Thanks... and the 'blind' challenge does sound interesting.
