Mermay 2018 Gallery 2
My first MerMay! In 2018, I was still very new to drawing digitally and this challenge really helped me practice, especially textures. NSFW because I do not believe in modesty shells! The last two weeks of the month:

I overachieved in 2017 and combined the official Inktober prompt list with the Dralloween prompts of artist Mab Graves. I kept it all in my sketchbook and brought back a few of the characters from previous years to have some fun with their development. Sketches and references shown. The last half of the month:

I wasn’t feeling the prompts for any of the Halloween Challenges in 2016, so I came up with my own list. I also went back to a purely hand drawn challenge, working with microns and Pitt Pen markers in a battered Moleskine sketchbook. I loved this year — some fun, tiny toons resulted. The last half of the month (apparently I missed Day 21: Enchanted Edible… ?):

A sample of the more presentable pieces from Drawlloween 2015. This was my first time participating in a major art challenge! I was very much trying to find a balance between hand drawn sketchbook doodles and a fun version of the more polished vector work I’d done as a professional designer. The results are very uneven, but still lots of fun and hey, everyone starts somewhere! This challenge pre-dates the iPad Pro by a month — I was still drawing in Photoshop with the pen tool using my laptop trackpad. This challenge gave me some characters I used again in later years, like my Amulet Witch.
