I decided to participate in this event in which participants do a drawing each day during the month of October. I took the option, however, of only doing it every other day. So I planned to produce an inked image on the odd numbered dates-1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th etc. That amounts to a potential 16 drawings over the period. These were progressively posted here on my blog and dated. I also added an image of the drawing implement(s) employed. I saw this exercise as an opportunity to ‘warm up’ for issue 4 of my Blotting Paper artist book/comic…another experimental image-making outlet.

A new drawing made on every odd numbered date of the month.

Switching back to abstraction but with the addition of some ghosting colour line.

Returning to the objective whilst retaining an element of abstraction and some acrylic colouring.

Midway through the month…I managed to maintain my planned participation of posting an ink image every other day. Next stage…I am move in the direction of making blind contour drawings of moving subjects.

A return to abstraction for the final four images! I am switching to printmaking, exchanging the pen for a brush and using sumi ink to make monoprints.

Job done! Please post any comments and suggestions about the blog, my drawings and printmaking. I would love to read your responses, Michael.
