I fear that what I have to say
Is predictable or cliche,
But those we find to be most wild
May well hide a frightened child.

Inktober Day 15: Legend
Once you figure out where you want to be,
following the legend is key.
Inktober Day 14: Overgrown
Once planted, the distrust grew, heart and mind overgrown like kudzu.
Inktober Day 13: Ash
For the imposition of the ashes we kneel, pray for peace, and hope to heal.
Inktober Day 12: Dragon
Though his friends say it’s too frou-frou, the dragon loves his girl tattoo.

Inktober Day 11: Snow
Tonight no sighs or tales of woe, it’s quiet in the falling snow.
Inktober Day 10: Pattern
The pattern is there, just follow with care.
Inktober Day 9: Swing
Okay, so here’s the thing, not sure why she must swing…
Inktober Day 8: Frail
Fen on Bluff Mountain
Nature’s balance seems so frail
Yet in drought… a bloom.
As I got ready to start my second week of Inktober I realized I was missing color. Last night I bought myself a pack of colored felt-tip pens, so I could continue just using ink, but with some bright hues thrown in. The new pens feel lovely in my hand, but I was not thrilled with how they blend. This evening when I got home from work I found some old highlighters and markers and used them to help finish the piece. I am pleased the end result but I am also bewildered by it. Everything about the style and the mood of the piece feels foreign to me somehow. It seems like someone else’s drawing, and no, not just because it does not have any blue. 😉
Inktober Day 7: Enchanted
I am so enchanted by Erik Satie;
His music touches a place deep inside me.
