It's October, so it's <a href="http://mrjakeparker.com/inktober/" target="_blank">Inktober</a>! This year I decided to draw my Inktobers on Strathmore Toned Gray paper because I have had a pad of it for a long time and have wanted to try it. Here are the first seven drawings:<br />

Happy New Year! I've been doing some ink sketching for practice and confidence. </div>

The top drawing was done with Higgins Black Magic ink on Arches cold pressed watercolor paper. I used watercolor paper because I wanted to leave the option open to add color, but Arches cold pressed paper has a great texture for inking. I don't like it if I want the ink lines to reproduce cleanly though, such as with workbook illustrations. The texture really breaks up the lines.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For this bottom set of sketches, the girl on the right was drawn with Higgins Black Magic and the others were done with Higgins Eternal ink. For the black solid, I grabbed my Pentel Pocket Brush Pen. The paper was Canson XL which I like for ink drawing because it has a soft texture and takes both ink lines and watercolor well. It's affordable too.</div>

I am excited to share a wonderful middle grade chapter book, <u>Paul and His Beast</u>. Written by Sarah Stup, the book is about a sixth grader with autism who is working hard to be successful in a regular middle school. It's a great story and gives the reader very thoughtful insight into what it's like to have autism. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was honored to create the cover and interior illustrations for the book. The photo above shows the printed book and I'm including some of the interior illustrations below.</div>

Thanks for following along with my 2015 Inktober challenge. <br />
<br />
During the month, I discovered a few things. I found out that it was easier for me to come up with the ideas for 31 drawings than it was to find the time to complete them! And since there was no time to over-think what to do for each piece, I learned what I like to draw, what I draw easily, and what I want to work on. I'm glad I participated.<br />
<br />
Here are my last two drawings for Inktober 2015:<br />

These three Inktober drawings were created with a Bic Round Stic Grip ballpoint pen in fine/black. I love sketching with ballpoint because it's ink that can travel with me anywhere. I drew 24 and 26 in a new little Apprentice sketchbook by Baron Fig (<a href="http://www.baronfig.com/pages/apprentice" target="_blank">link</a>). It's a perfect pocket size and the paper is very nice! It holds up to a lot of drawing.</div>

They seem to want their own space. 22 is drawn with pen and ink and 23 is drawn with black ballpoint pen. Both are wearing romantic dresses of the Edwardian era.<br />

You can find out about it on his site here (<a href="http://mrjakeparker.com/inktober" target="_blank">X</a>). In its simplest form, it's making daily ink drawings during October and posting them online with the hashtag #inktober. <br />
<br />
I've not participated in the past and had not planned to do so this year either. But I draw in ink! I felt like at least doing a few drawings would be a good drawing experience and would keep me from feeling InkToberLazy.<br />
<br />
I don't know how many pieces I'll have time to do, but I've done three so far. I hope I can surprise myself and do all 31 days!<br />

I thought this week would be ideal for another figure drawing/historical fashion combination illustration so that's what I created. Originally I intended it to be funny, which in a way it is, but not in the silly way I originally imagined. I worked harder on it than I had planned and it took on a life of its own. So I decided against giving it a funny name and present it here as "The Flowered Gown". <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I used Higgins Black Magic ink drawn with a Hunt 102 (crow quill) nib on Arches Aquarelle watercolor paper. The watercolors are from my mixed-up collection of Grumbacher and Winsor & Newton.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here are the reference photos I used:</div>

The figure drawing site I used is here: (<a href="http://w.artists.pixelovely.com/" target="_blank">Link</a>) The site seems to have changed or is being reconstructed because as of the time of this post it doesn't work properly for me. I'm including the link because the site has been great to use in the recent past and I'm sure it will again soon. It's weird that the pose is a big Viking guy and I wanted to draw a woman, but the axe was perfect for this week's "sharp" theme and I liked his expression.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The site I used for historical fashion is The Metropolitan Museum of Art's site here: (<a href="http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/159485" target="_blank">Gown Link</a>).</div>

I'm so late on this that there was no time for ink to dry before painting on it! So I shaded it with lines instead. This was drawn with 0 and 00 brushes and Speedball Super Black ink, which is easy to find and I think makes nice lines.</div>

This year's set of hand-painted Preakness Stakes souvenir plates is done and delivered! I've been commissioned for the past several years by the Maryland Jockey Club to create gift plates for the owners of the horses entered in each year's Preakness. I really like this plate design, although the border of little squares took a LOT longer to paint than I expected it to! The design is based on elements of this year's official Preakness logo.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I use Folk Art Enamels to paint these. The simple, white plates were purchased at Pier One.</div>

This is a custom haunted house portrait that I recently completed. A client sends me a couple of clear pictures of their house and I draw it in pen and ink as a whimsical, creepy-cute haunted house! For this one, my customer wanted their address included in the art and their dog chasing a black cat.<br />

<div>
This was an 8"x10" paper size to fit in a standard frame. I used Strathmore watercolor paper, a crow quill pen (Hunt nib 102) and Higgins Black Magic ink. Here are a few process shots:</div>
