Today is day 7, the last day of the Drawlloweek. That’s the new term I made up to bow out of the month-long, Drawlloween drawing challenge. I’ve done the entire month every year since 2015, but the hours I spend on each drawing seem to increase each time (and the […]

Today’s combination prompt drawing covers three lists. They are: Drawlloween 2019: “That Time We Stormed Area 51” Inktober 2019: “Husky” Mabs Drawlloween Club 2019: “Black Dog” I went back to drawing digitally for this one, despite it being also meant for Inktober, but since no one really polices these things, […]
On day four of this drawing challenge, I didn’t try to complete multiple list prompts into one drawing. I kept just the Drawlloween 2019 prompt of “Wolf Yoga” by itself, since it was too serene an image to clutter up with a candelabra from Mabs list and frozen from the […]
Combining the prompts for Day 2: #Catacombs from Mabs Drawlloween Club, #Mindless (see how the skull have no minds/brains in them, even the fresh one) from Inktober, and #Dracula’s Yard Sale from the Drawlloween list. Hey, how do you expect Dracula to draw more victims into his catacombs if he […]
Once again, I’m going to participate in an October drawing challenge to push creativity and improve skills in different types of media styles (and it’s kind of fun to have an open-ended assignment each day to do on the iPad). This year, I’m combining prompts from different Drawlloween lists: RING […]
“Trick ‘R Treat Yo’ Self!” Being a fan of the TV show, “Parks and Recreation” I was tempted to draw the characters from the show from whom this paraphrasing was taken, but I decided to do a compilation of the 30 other drawings from this year’s month-long drawing challenge. That […]
“Build-A-Beast” Using my ultimate pen to pen the penultimate day of Drawlloween 2018. The prompt of Build-A-Beast, based on—presumably—Build-A-Bear Workshop, led me down the usual road of using a bevy of “Beast” characters from pop culture comics and animation. In this case: Beast from the Marvel Comics team, The X-Men; […]
“Scarecrow Records” Unsure of the origin of this pun (is it like Death Row Records?) I showed my age and used an actual LP record instead of other interpretations of the word. I also made a record label logo to put on it. The results are supposed to show an […]
“The Curious Cabinet of Mr. Calimari” Today’s title refers to the silent film “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari” so I guess that is why the similar-sounding “calamari” is spelled wrong. (I don’t know why “automaton” was spelled wrong on day 25 though, so it may just be the list maker […]
“Frankenstein’s Other Creation” For today’s challenge, I unwisely got way too complicated and decided to not only replace the usual Universal classic movie version of the Bride of Frankenstein with the character “Frankenhooker” from the 1990 camp classic of the same name, but I also wanted to have the monster […]
