Inktober's Coming!

Inktober's about to start, so I figured I'd finally share what I did last year!

In October 2019, I successfully made it through the entire month of Inktober, doing a marker drawing each day. I had fun and I was proud of my commitment. Although at the time, I was pretty good about sharing the images, I haven't fully bothered to put all the images in one place until now.

So in honor of Inktober 2020 about to begin... here they are.

( Oh, if you want an unfinished Virtual Reality experience where you can check out some of the images in a virtual gallery alongside some of Lucy's, then check it out here: (Virtual Reality)
