Inktober 2017, day 1-9
Posted on October 10th, 2017
October is here, and with it comes cool winds, crunchy leaves, and ink art! There is an official prompt list, which I followed for exactly one day, oops. Instead, I’m concentrating on drawing things that make me happy this time around, with a side of clearing out my daunting commissions queue, so expect a hodgepodge of whatever mood strikes me throughout the month.
Inktober day 1: Swift
Inktober day 2: Sharks
Inktober day 3: Syrups for a Patreon patron
Inktober day 4: Growth 9
Inktober day 5: Ghost Mandala
Inktober day 6: Bone Rose
Inktober day 7: Happy Halloween
Inktober day 8: Autumn Warmth for Kim
Inktober day 9: Hermione & Luna for Disco

Devil and Ghost
Posted on September 19th, 2017
Devil and Ghost, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Is this where I just admit I have sold a LOT of these chibi commissions lately? But they’re just so fun, I have no regrets.
These are for Halloween, of course! Arthur and Eames from Inception coming back again as the Devil and a ghost. Arthur is smarming it up in his red velvet suit, straightening his cuffs as he leans nonchalantly in wait. Eames is looking extra spiffy floating along in his vintage windowpane check.
And of course on the right I have the little sketch ghost I drew just to test Eames’ colors before the real thing. Boo!
These are drawn as close to a square aspect ratio as possible, so that they work as emoji on Slack. Their adorable 2-head-high chibi style conveys a lot of personality in a tiny space.
