Title: Inktober - Days 16-22
Artist: jainas 
Rating: PG
Fandom: Discworld by Terry Pratchett and Toy Story (both in a very roundabout way), classical french poetry, original art
Characters: none
Content Notes: I was a day late for most of the end of the week, as I was very tired. But thinking about my inktober, planning my quotes and doing the drawings kept me going during a few difficult days.
Plenty of animals this week, a few fumbles with text placements, one major offence to Victor Hugo, and I started reusing some technics.
Next week I will try illustrating more scenes from books.

Also I'm meeting my one of my favorite authors in November : Guy Gavriel Kay, and the day I will see him will be his birthday, so I'm kinda planning to draw a scene from one of his book and give it to him...

Only I don't know what book and what quote, and what if the drawing isn't good enough?
I'm very stressed! >_<

Title: Inktober - Days 1-7
Artist: jainas 
Rating: PG-13
Fandom: original art
Characters: none
Content Notes: This year I decided to inspire my inktober from quotes and do illustrations mixed with handmade fonts... Some are in english, some in french and I decided not to have rules regarding the use of color.
What is great with this thematic approach is that it gives me a great range of styles to call on depending the quote...

It has been a long time since I didn't draw everyday, and finding my feelings again proved a bit challenging and frustrating at time, as my hand doesn't always do what my mind would want... And I know I'm kind of weak on the handmade-font front... Something to work on next week. ^^
But I'm also having a tremendous amount of fun and for now I'm experimenting with as many styles and diverses quotes as possible... Maybe I will repeat myself later on, but for now I'm trying to keep an open mind in the treatment of each quote. 

Also: I have a google doc full of quote people gave me, that I draw from when it's time to break out the ink... but I don't have enough yet to last 31 days! So do not hesitate to give me more quotes, verses of a song or a poem, perfect lines in a book… Thank you! <3
