This Inktober has been challenging. I decided to use the same technical/scientific approach to sketching that I started applying to my secondary sketchbook, that led to a detailed taxonomy of things and a time consuming work. I admit it: I couldn’t finish my Inktober before mid-November but I felt perfectly at ease because I knew it wasn’t a matter of laziness but all about care. Here are my 31 drawings, all sketched with a Lamy Safari filled with Noodler’s Lexington Gray ink; self bound sketchbook with G.Lalo 100 gsm vergé paper.
