Inktober

Jake Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It’s now an annual event celebrated each year by artists in October to practice drawing with ink all month long!

Doodlewash is not directly affiliated with Inktober, but it’s a fun way to spend a month practicing drawing and sketching. You can find out more and get the current year’s prompts, once available, at the Inktober website!

You can also use prompts from our October Doodlewash drawing and painting challenge, or combine them to get even more fun ideas of what to draw!
