Ready your pens.

Every October, artists all over the world take on the Inktober drawing challenge by doing one ink drawing a day the entire month. The point is to be consistent with it. Inktober is about growing, improving, and forming positive habits, so the more you’re consistent, the better.

Jake Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavor with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year.
