I learned much from participating in Inktober 2019. I think I improved as the month went on, which is a great lesson on the power of regular creative work and practice. Most of all, it was fun. The Inktober 2019 experience reminded me of the pure joy of drawing. It reminded me that all one needs to create something is a blank sheet, something to write with, and an imagination.
Now, back to writing. And, if I’m lucky, perhaps some writing which also includes some drawing.
Carry on, creative people!
#Inktober Day 22 is GHOST. I really don’t know where this struggling kid reader would have been without GUS WAS A FRIENDLY GHOST to lead him from pictures to words. Man, I loved that purple book. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 23 is ANCIENT. Our 1950s-era electric GE wall oven. It’s pink. It also allows @MotherHays to make the best cookies on the planet. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 24 is DIZZY. At every playground lay the bane of my youth. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 25 is TASTY. Following up the mention of cookies from Day 23 with an example of the best cookies on the planet. Chocolate chip = good. Almost empty plate = bad. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 26 is DARK. The place where the jack-o-lanterns are always the happiest. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 27 is COAT. One of the things I saved from my grandparent’s house was the framed Bosley Family coat of arms. Grandpa Bosley always called me his bodyguard. #TheBoz#inktober2019#Inktober Day 28 is RIDE. Down the church parking lot hill. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 29 is INJURED. A shout-out to all the seniors who have to watch their final high school games from the sideline. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 30 is CATCH. I was fortunate a few months ago to look down and catch these two on our patio fence. Sadly, “SOME FROG” wasn’t written into a web. #inktober2019#Inktober Day 31 is RIPE. Wrapping this month up with the most ripe thing I’ve ever been witness to. The titan arum (corpse flower) bloom. Think a bucket of a thousand dead mouse carcasses and you’ll get close to the odor of this fabulous plant. #inktober2019
