Description

Day 13 of the Inktober challenge and my theme of "Animals".  Saw this little fellow hiding in a rock pool near the coast and loved the pretty colours.


I am running a little behind with the Inktober challenge and it may be a while between each post as I struggle to catch up. I thank you for your patience.


Created in pen and ink using Copic multiliners and black india ink, with Dr PH Martin's Hydrus liquid watercolours to add a splash of interest and colour. If you want to see my black/white version of each drawing, please check out my Instagram (www.instagram.com/deefa_doris/ )

i don't know if this will help, but generally inktober they just use one color ink, though some use multi-color, too...just an idea if you're feeling rushed...cuz that's the last thing i'd want you to feel is rushed!

Thank you for your concern. I do appreciate it   Adding the colour to the inkwork I realise is optional, but it actually takes me a few moments to do. The ink work is what takes me the longest time and that's what Inktober is I guess


I wanted to take my time with the challenge so that each piece is a completed piece of artwork which I can put on my Etsy shop for sale when all is done. That way I don't really mind whether I finish the challenge on time as I know that I will finish them all sometime. I just don't want to disappoint others if they are expecting a regular update and completion before end of October.
