Well well well, my old nemesis Inktober is here again!

Each year I decide to take part, I announce my inky intentions, then give up less than a week in.

In true tradition, here I am, telling you that I will be taking part in Inktober 2022. Feel free to disregard the rest of this post in the knowledge that I may last a few days, or you never know, I may make it right up to Halloween!

Inktober has been going since 2009 and has an account on Instagram which is super inspiring – @inktober. The ‘guidelines’ are basically draw with ink every day through October and post them with #inktober2022.

Easy Peasy!

So here I go, I plan to keep it simple for myself by using ink on loose sheets of paper (a variety from sketch paper to tracing paper with whatever I find in between). At the end I will make a book out of the papers I have made. The aim is to end up with a partly filled and partly empty book that I can continue to work in. I will be using different inks and tools including sticks, a ruling pen and brushes, maybe even prints. Follow along with me on Instagram @claredavisetheridge
