Abandoned hotel in desert. Sign says no vacancy but even the rats left years ago

Inktober day 29: Lesson

Person in a dress pointing at a whiteboard. There is a word ”õppetund” on the board. Õppentund is Estonian for ”a lesson”

Inktober day 28: skeletal

Two onions that kind of look like a heart together&10;&10;Fineliner pen

Inktober day 26: puzzling

#inktober

Wall of rock (of a mountain). There is a massive closed door with some runes. By the door there is a wizard thinking of the puzzle that is the door. There is a lake and something peaks through the surface of the water.

Inktober day 25: inferno

#inktober

Getting harder and harder to motivate myself. There are six days and two interesting prompts left. This was supposed to be watercolour + ink on top but after the draft I couldn’t bother

Rough scenes of hell. Fire. Screaming people. People on top of stone pilara

Inktober day 24: rowdy

#inktober

Extremely rough or rowdy sketch of a rowdy scene:&10;&10;Two building, a small crowd making noises and setting of fireworks

Inktober day 23: firefly

Rough idea of a dragonfly sitting on top of a pole

Day 22 inktober: button

#inktober

Two giant buttons and two little humans pushing them lovingly

Inktober day 21: blast

Suggestion of a mushroom cloud in negative space. Mostly horizontal and vertical lines creating a space where we see the flash of the explosion

Inktober day 20: rivals

Quick draft fineliner on paper: shock revelation from behind the scenes: knight Sir Dragonhunter kissing the lovely old dragon lady of the fire mountains

Inktober day 19 arctic

#inktober

Thin lines of ink suggesting a group of people walking through a snowy landscape pulling sleds. Some dried up winter flowers in front

Inktober day 18: deal

#inktober

Draft book. Ink drawing with underlying pencil support lines showing&10;&10;Thumb and other fingers dealing a card towards the horizon. Two other cards already flying through space

At some point I enjoyed one of those extreme survivor type of TV shows. Then they went to Finnish Lapland and survived “extreme harsh winter” weather that wouldn’t have even made trams run late in Helsinki

Inktober (quickie on a newspaper) day 17: ornate

#inktober

Rough idea of something ornate hanging on the wall. Lots of busy lines with a fine nib

This inktober prompt was hard. Let’s go with this. Smudged something that was supposed to be something else earlier and turned it into a mountain range this morning

Inktober day 16. Blunder

#inktober

Very rough mountain range in red ink on a water colour paper

Sadly, no time for water colour this morning, instead, a quickie with a fineliner and Pilot parallel.

Inktober day 15: ragged

#inktober

Ragged line of Electrocardiography. Between heartbeats there are two little people holding hands

Inktober day 14: trunk

#inktober

Tree trunk lying on it side on the ground. There is grass on the foreground. The trunk is covered in marks of passage of time and some soft moss. There is a spot on top where sun hits the tree trunk and there is a tiny human couple kissing there. They have found a perfect spot for their Sunday picnic

Inktober day 13: drink (now with watercolour) #inktober

A whimsical watercolor painting depicting a surreal landscape where an oversized glass of water with a bent straw towers over the scene. In the foreground, a couple of small people sit by a pond on the green grass. The background features a blue sky with a pale moon or sun, while scattered across the landscape are small trees in peachy-tan and rust-orange tones, along with red and blue flowers. The artwork has loose pen-and-ink outlines with soft watercolor washes, creating a dreamlike quality through its dramatic scale contrast between the giant glass and the tiny human figures.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Inktober day 13: drink (first draft, waiting for watercolour)

#inktober

Quick and faint draft of a summer scene: trees, grass, sky. A couple sitting by the pond. Pond is being formed by liquid dropping from a giant straw in a giant drink glass in the middle of the picture

Prestige TV ruined watching TV before sunset. Why is everything so damn dark all the time?

Feeling of the day: pugnacious. Let’s hope it is a force for good

Inktober day 12: shredded
