InkTober 2017 – Day 30: Found

I read that you can revive dried out markers with water or alcohol.  I tried it with one and it worked! But it was the water based marker and I used alcohol in it…. Eek!!! Did I ruin it??? I hope not…. It seems ok…??? I have so many dried out markers that I could […]

InkTober 2017 – Day 28: Fall

Yes.  This really happened.  To me. But in my defense, my friend is a linguistic genius and I would regularly see her sitting at her desk *actually* studying the dictionary! Then she’d share her amazing discoveries with me. Made sense that if anyone would know, it would be her.  I’d have been a fool to […]

InkTober – Day 27: Climb

I heard they don’t offer the old style monkey bars anymore.  I am very sad that any child got hurt on them. But the experience of making it to the top – even if you don’t have the balance to stand up there – is exhilarating.  I’m sorry modern kids will miss that. Then again, […]

InkTober – Day 26: Squeak

Hee hee!  Ever have a pair of shoes that drives you nuts?   Here’s a tip:  it drives everyone else nuts, too.   😉 But seriously,  why do they even squeak??? And if you have a pair with only *ONE* squeaking!!!! What’s with that???  Like, does everyone’s left shoe squeak for that model or is […]

InkTober 2017 – Day 25: Ship

I had this great idea pop into my head for this one, but just didn’t have the time.  I was too pooped to draw poopdecks!  Lol So here’s a very simple version.  Hope I get a chance to draw the bigger idea someday soon!  🙂

InkTober 2017 – Day 24: Blind

I will probably draw this out many times in my life.  It was one of those moments I will never forget.  That’s when I wanted to grow up, be 15, so I could be her friend.  *sigh* This is a perfect example of how you can be 100% right about something (she was black, AND […]

InkTober 2017 – Day 23: Juicy

This one may seem wierd.  No, it’s not about a news story. I’m sitting at the service center waiting for my car, working on yesterday’s InkTober drawing. Then I hear it: the suspenseful music, the tense “Oh boy, someone’s gonna face the music now” voices, the bizarre dialogue. I turn to look at the TV, […]

InkTober 2017 – Day 22: Trail

I didn’t know what to draw for a trail, and had to wait for my car repair today.  Toyota had a car brochure on the counter next to me and I skimmed it thinking, they sell trucks….  Sure enough, there was a trail in it!!  No cars or trucks, I added people instead. Hm… a […]

InkTober 2017 – Day 21: Furious

Boy I struggled with this one.  I spend so much time trying to *NOT* be furious, I don’t want to think of things that get me there!!!   But this came to mind for exactly that reason. Poor “O” – wrong place at the wrong time!!!  Hope they make peace soon!  🙂
