I'm really starting to understand inking better! It's a goal of mine to record more of my process for my YouTube channel, but for now I don't have a capable camera. This snippet will have to suffice for now! It's hard to draw AND hold your phone for video, haha! ... ... ... #inktober #inktober2017 #inktoberday4 #inktoberohio #inktobercolumbus #inktoberfairytales #kidlitart #kidlitartist #hcandersen #hanschristianandersen #fairytales #asseenincolumbus #columbuscreatives #614artists #midwestmakers #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #draweveryday #instaart #instaartist #ink #inkart #inkartist #halloween #halloweenart #satisfying #wip (at Columbus, Ohio)

"The Nightingale" Inktober Day 7. 8"x10" ink on Bristol paper. 🖤 Suddenly there came through the open window the sound of sweet music. Outside, on the bough of a tree, sat the living nightingale. She had heard of the emperor's illness, and was therefore come to sing to him of hope and trust. And as she sung, the shadows grew paler and paler; the blood in the emperor's veins flowed more rapidly, and gave life to his weak limbs; and even Death himself listened, and said, "Go on, little nightingale, go on." -HC Andersen, "The Nightingale" 🖤 #inktober #inktober2017 #inktoberday7 #inktoberohio #inktobercolumbus #inktoberfairytales #kidlitart #kidlitartist #hcandersen #hanschristianandersen #fairytales #asseenincolumbus #columbuscreatives #614artists #midwestmakers #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #draweveryday #instaart #instaartist #ink #inkart #inkartist #halloween #halloweenart #nightingale #thenightingale (at Columbus, Ohio)

"The Emperor's New Clothes" Inktober Day One. 8"x10" ink on Bristol paper. 🖤🖊 My theme for #Inktober this year is Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen! Myself and so many others have grown up loving his work and I thought #inktober2017 would be a fun time to pay him homage with some illustrations. 📚 Also these pieces are going to be part of a grander project. Since HC Andersen's tales are in the public domain, I'll be compiling my drawings with his stories and releasing them later this year. Whoo hoo! (I'm tired already, haha!)😴 Also, if you're interested, all these originals will be available on my Etsy sometime soon. ... ... ... #inktoberohio #inktobercolumbus #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #kidlitart #kidlitartist #draweveryday #inkart #inkartist #nibpen #dippenart #asseenincolumbus #ohioartists #columbusartist #columbuscreatives #midwestmakers #instaartist #instaart #halloween #fairytales #hanschristianandersen #hcandersen #inktoberfairytales #drawings (at Columbus, Ohio)

"The Princess and the Pea" Inktober Day 4. 8"x10" ink on Bristol paper. 🖤 "One evening there was a terrible storm; it thundered and lightninged and the rain poured down in torrents; indeed it was a fearful night. In the middle of the storm somebody knocked at the town gate, and the old King himself sent to open it. It was a princess who stood outside, but she was in a terrible state from the rain and the storm. The water streamed out of her hair and her clothes; it ran in at the top of her shoes and out at the heel, but she said that she was a real princess." 🖤 Loved this part as a kid for some reason! 😂 ... ... ... #inktober #inktober2017 #inktoberday4 #inktoberohio #inktobercolumbus #inktoberfairytales #kidlitart #kidlitartist #hcandersen #hanschristianandersen #fairytales #asseenincolumbus #columbuscreatives #614artists #midwestmakers #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #draweveryday #instaart #instaartist #ink #inkart #inkartist #halloween #halloweenart #princessandthepea (at Columbus, Ohio)
