This portrait is drawn from an image posted by Dritan on Sktchy. It’s day 28 of Inktober and the end is in sight. I’ve enjoyed working with ballpoint pens and I’ve certainly improved but I’m so looking forward to playing with my watercolours and Copics again!
Today’s Sktchy face – for day 27 of Inktober- is Esther. It’s not a great portrait- I missed the likeness and the tonal values are all wrong. I’ve got a migraine today and I was working in semi-darkness because I couldn’t tolerate the light. If I’d been feeling better I might have carried on and tried to rectify some of the problems with more layers of colour. But it’s Inktober and tomorrow I’ll be drawing another one!
This is Thiago from Sktchy for day 26 of Inktober.
This is Brandon for day 25 of Inktober.
This is Mica from Sktchy for day 24 of Inktober.
This is Abolfazi from Sktchy. The inspiration photo for this portrait is so serene and I’m very happy that I managed to capture some of that serenity in this drawing.
It’s now the 23rd day of Inktober and, as every day this Inktober, I drew this with Bic 4 colour ballpoint pens in a Life Noble Note Plain notebook.
I’m frankly astonished that I’ve managed to keep up with Inktober this year while doing ballpoint pen drawings. Most of these drawings are made sat at my desk in multiple 10 and 15 minute gaps in the day between remote Zoom meetings. Yet here we are at Day 22 and I’ve posted a drawing every single day! This is Kim from Sktchy, once again drawn with those awesome Bic 4 colour pens.
This is Elene from Sktchy for day 21 of Inktober.
This is Jolani drawn from a photo posted by Moh on Sktchy for day 20 of Inktober.
