An additional challenge that has been part of my participation in this year's Inktober is that I will not draw in pencil first but will use ink first and last for my drawing. This requires very deliberate, nearly Zen-like carefulness and pre-visualization.
Somewhere I read that Jack Kirby, comic art master, was able to forego the pencil art and draw directly with ink to create his dynamic works of artistic genius. I doubt if I could do that for an entire comic. But each of my Inktober drawings will be a practice in ink-only drawing.
For my Day 4 art, I wish I would not have used the Paper Mate Flair pen. It is a small drawing (2.5"x2.25") that I made during a company meeting.
Perhaps it's not a very original for the "Underwater" prompt. I imagine there will be lots of drawings of mermaids for today's entries. But I looked forward to the challenge of conveying the buoyancy of an underwater scene. Easily, this could be a "pre-production" concept drawing for a larger, more-detailed art piece. We'll see.
