My nephew Tom posted to Instagram regarding how the month of October is now designated as Inktober.

It’s an initiative created by artist Jake Parker.  The idea is to do some inking during the month of October in order to strengthen inking skills.

Okay, I’m in!  I’ll be posting my inked cartoons each day.  (Well, at least I hope to).  I’ll be inking with a Pentel fountain pen and it’s refillable counterpart known as a Tradio.  My posts will be quick inked drawing s of my characters from “George” and whatever else comes to mind.

And, here and there, I’ll be updating with “George” comic strips.

Above is my initial drawing to kick things off!

Happy Inktober!
