It's that time of year again. The nights are getting shorter and it's time for black ink to fill our dark evenings with imagination and creativity. It's Inktober 2020! See the official prompts list here.
The rules are simple:
1) Make a drawing in ink (you can do a pencil under-drawing if you want).
2) Post it*
3) Hashtag it with #inktober and #inktober2020
4) Repeat
Note: you can do it daily, or go the half-marathon route and post every other day, or just post once a week. What ever you decide, just be consistent with it. SEt yourself a goal! Inktober is about growing and improving and forming positive habits, so the more you’re consistent the better.
That's it! Now go make something beautiful.
*Post it on any social media account you want or just post it on your refrigerator or the wall in A4 or the A7 art notice board.
The point is to share your art with someone!

If you don't fancy ink drawings look at author Alex di Campi's Sketchtober. This is an open, use whatever media you like, no pressure prompt list for October drawing fun! Alex has made a Spooky and a Sweet version! Check the prompts out here.
We love Inktober here in St. Laurence College. In fact we love it so much we have our own Mega Inktober List.
