Artist Jake Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. I made this project unique to me by choosing to use Adobe CC as my pen and paper. 

Inktober '24

  • Designs that pushed me outside my comfort zones to create.
  • Familiarizing myself with new techniques learn along the 31 days.
  • Stand alone art pieces I am really proud of

Outcomes

  • Ignoring self doubt and internal judgment.
  • Planning designs before bed or at work.
  • Take inspiration from whatever media I was consuming; music, movies, video games, etc.

Strategy

  • Planning on paper, executing in photoshop, and posting it on instagram all in the same day while working full time
  • Avoiding getting hung up on minor details and sticking with what works.

Challenges

Create a design every day of October for 31 days no exception. Using the month to improve my design process start to finish and deflating my ego and perfectionism along the way.
