Inktober #1 – Gargoyle- 2022

Another year has passed and another inktober series is at hand. I decided to do another horror movie series to prepare us for Halloween. I am a huge horror fan. I enjoy trying to pair movies I’ve seen with the different prompts. Sometimes it can be very difficult but this year I have successfully paired…

Inktober 2021 – A Tribute to my Dad

My 2021 Inktober is dedicated to my dad. You can go back and read each post explaining the memory that is connected to every image. Today is my dad’s birthday. He would have been 64 today. I figured today would be a good day to share a post of all my sketches together. A lifetime…

Inktober 2021 #29 & #30

I never did get around to sharing my last two Inktober sketches last year. I dedicated my last inktober to my dad. He passed away in October of 2020 and this project was my way of bringing back some good memories to October. The prompt for entry #29 for Inktober was “Patch” I decided to…

Inktober 2021 #9 – Pressure

My dad had always taught me to be independent and learn how to do things for myself. He taught me all the basics of vehicle care and maintenance, tire pressure, changing a flat, oil changes, checking fluids, so on and so forth. He said, “Sometimes you might run in to trouble and there won’t be…

Inktober 2021 #8 – Watch

If you have seen my previous sketches for Inktober this year, you’ll know that my dad was a cowboy. His favorite movies were westerns and he watched them often. It was one of my favorite things to do with my dad when I was little. No one else I knew watched westerns so I thought…
