It's October, here we go again! Also how is it October already?

Starting off with a quick one after a late toddler bedtime.

Inktober day 1: Mustache

a black and white pen drawing of a bipedal moth character holding a lamp, wrapping its wings around it like a cloak. its antenna curl from its head and around, like a mustache

Decided to add a little colour splash today.

Day 2: Weave(r bird)

a black pen and watercolour wash sketch of an african weaver bird sitting on its nest. the bird is coloured in yellow and little patches of orange, and the leaves of the branch are coloured green. the rest is monochrome. the nest is approximately spherical with a small entrance hole at the front.

    Finally found some time and spoons to do art again. Got something larger in progress for once, and the linework is almost done.

    Then it's time to break out the watercolours!

    My son calls the Tesco delivery vans "the strawberry van" because one of them has an image of a lot of strawberries on the side.

    So I thought "but what if, like, strawberry van?" and drew a strawberry van.

    Have I said strawberry too many times?

    a watercolour and black linework drawing of a large vehicle in the shape of a strawberry, with yellow cart wheels and a chimney coming out of the top. there are pigeons lined along the top of the van, and the strawberry leaves are shaped in a way that suggests the driver sits there, with reins and a leaf shade over the seat. the side opens like a food truck, and the rear opens on a hinge to allow entry. inside the van is a man pointing towards a menu on the outside, and a lot of food paraphernalia. outside, a small girl in a witches outfit points to the menu, next to her is her cat

    Side note: do you ever reach a point in a project where you're thinking "oh no I'm ruining it?

    The linework was promising but the shading leaves room for improvement.
