Topic: Inktober 2022

Alright.

I'm doing Inktober again this year!

Not sure how I want to go about it yet, but last year brought me so much, I really want to try it again.

I'm opening this thread right now, because I want to motivate people in joining me! Doodle something, write a short, do photography, make music, knit a sweater, anything! The Inktober format has found its way into many different fields, and there's a reason for that: it's an amazing exercise for your creativity muscle, and it can lead to many things.

I gave it a try last year, unsure where it would lead me, if anywhere. What happened was I slowly found a visual style I didn't know I had in me, and I discovered a whole new way of expressing strong personal ideas, which I now give attention to as much as I do to photography. Even printed some of them, which are now displayed in an exhibition! I haven't done new digital art during the year but guess what, October is getting nearer, so I'll have motivation again to paint some stuff!

Can't recommend enough you guys give it a try. This place is as good as any to share it, and doing it as a group will be a great motivational help. Do one everyday, every other day, every week, whenever, just do it!

Prompts will be posted on September 1st, but if you go to inktober.com and subscribe to the newsletter, you'll get them by August 25th. I discovered them two days before the beginning of October last year, and I... don't recommend it.

Who's in?

PS: a discord channel dedicated to it could also be neat, just sayin'

Unfortunately (but awesomely), I'll be out of town for the entirety of October shooting a movie with iJim in Baltimore. Not that this means I won't have any time, just that I'll be mighty distracted.

I definitely look forward to seeing what people make. I might doodle some stuff just to say I participated, but... mostly, I'm out. hmm
