Ink and Sushi




I am continuing the Inktober Challenge -
drawing in ink every day and posting it
on line- but using the Hobonichi Challenge
 prompts. Above: Mummy and Skull.




Candy and Monster




Clown and Cobweb. I'm not particularly afraid of
clowns, but I also do NOT usually watch horror
 movies...so if there are scary movies out there 
featuring clowns, I don't want to know about it.
I tried to make a pleasantly happy clown...




Enjoyed a wonderful week visiting my son and
his family. These pages document some of our
 activities. Above, Owl and Trick-or-Treat prompts.




My son had a birthday while we were there,
and he wanted to go out for sushi. We had lunch
at a Japanese Steak House, and I had the 
"Bento Box" lunch. It seemed more like a 
lunch tray, at least in size, but the food
was good. I chose the grilled scallops.




Our grandson also ordered sushi, and as he
was seated next to me, I got a photo of his
substantial lunch.  He said some of it was
pretty spicy.




It's actually pretty to look at, but just not to 
my taste...




More October prompts: Haunted House
and Black Cat. The cat is inspired by a vintage
Halloween decoration.






For the Ghost prompt, I decided to draw one
 of the ghosts from the Harry Potter movies, 
Moaning Myrtle. She's one of my favorite
 characters. The Leaves are drawn from
and on-line photo.





Prompts 18 and 19 were Vampire 
and Werewolf.  The Count from Sesame Street
 seemed a fun choice to draw for the vampire. 
I wonder if I could find a copy of
the Werewolf of London movie? It
might not be too scary to watch. 
I would guess that a 1930's movie would be 
pretty tame compared to what 
is produced these days. One of my all time
favorite old movies is Arsenic and Old Lace. 
I loved that movie!  But I digress...


Prompt: Mermaid~ I chose to do a
little gal in a mermaid costume.

You may have noticed several little coffee
cup drawings, in addition to my glass of water
at the restaurant, referenced for Bleubeard and 
Elizabeth's T-Tuesday blog hop.
You don't have to draw your own tea/coffee cup
or your food to join in...just
stop by for a beverage and a chat!
