October 21st. An unfinished/abandoned illustration that I made for The Woman in Black.

An illustration of two men on a horse & cart making their way across a causeway toward a large Victorian house on a small island at the end of the causeway. The causeway is wet and muddy with deep tracks and seaweed strewn across it. A moody sky with bursts of sunlight illuminating the roof of the house and the estuary surrounding the island. Black crosshatch pen with printmaking ink applied with a roller on white paper. Atmospheric.

Happy Sunday! Getting ready for an open house and found this sketch I did in high school. We didn't have any encouragement at home but mentors along the way for which I am grateful. #blackandwhiteart #ape #kidlitart #mentorship #inktober #art #illustration #nature

October 20th. Another of my unused (probably for the best) illustrations for The Woman in Black by Susan Hill.

An illustration of the woman in black in extreme close up. Her eyes and nose are central in the composition. Her eyes are full of hatred…and sadness. A black crosshatch pen and printmaking ink applied with a roller on white paper.

Art of an anthro mouse with purple hair, silver industrials in his ears, in a purple sleeveless hoodie, and purple/black striped skirt and arm warmers. The mous has a USB cord tail, a gear with the kanji "Love" tattood on the USB plug and his left bicep. He has a speech bubble with a purple heart in it.

Art of three anthros: two half wolf, half ferrets(wolfrets), and one mouse.

The left most wolfret has purple hair with white bangs, an eyepatch, and is wearing a black sleeveless vest and pants. He is holding a pink device with a clear adapter at the end and wearing a pink and neon green belt around his waist (Gamer Driver from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid)

The middle Wolfret has white hair with purple bangs, is wearing a sleeveless cropped top hoodie with the outline of a ferret head on one side of her chest, and a black and purple crosshatch design on the other. She is wearing black and purple striped arm warmers and skirt. She is holding a small battery shaped cylinder, and wearing a black and red belt with a handle on it (Build Driver from Kamen Rider Build).

The mouse on the right has purple hair, metal industrials in his ears, and glasses. He's wearing a purple sleeveless hoodie, and black and purple arm warmers, and black pants. He's holding a usb stick in one hand and a black, red, and silver belt (Doubledriver from Kamen Rider W)

The background is a crosshatch design of purple and black, with the words HENSHIN above the three characters.

The pic is of an anthro scorbunny with light green hair. He has purple pupil and black sclera. He's wearing a two tone blue shirt, and a black and purple and red belt bucklet (Buggle Driver from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid), and is holding up a device in his right hand.

Storage Jar https://collections.artsmia.org/art/66629/

large vessel with pair of lug handles; small flat foot, flaring outward to pointed shoulder; straight neck with outward-flaring rim; swirl, linear and crosshatch painted designs in black and white
Located in the far northwest of China, the Majiayao culture (c. 3800-2000 b.c.) produced an accomplished painted pottery tradition. Although originally derived from the Yangshao culture, Majiayao is now considered a culture of its own. Many of its tomb sites in Qinghai and Gansu provinces were richly furnished with decorative pottery. The culture went through an evolution of painted pottery designs that lasted more than a thousand years. During the Majiayao phase (3100-2700 b.c.), when this spectacular storage jar was created, painted decoration had become independent. Designs have a distinctive linear quality with black parallel lines encircling the vessel with fluid and rhythmic movements creating striking graphic effects. The additional use of a white pigment, here effectively used to highlight the design, is somewhat rare. The vessel comes from Gansu or Qinghai province in the upper Huang Ro (Yellow River) basin; probably the most prolific pottery producing area between 4000 and 2000 b.c. The Majiayao region would later produce two other distinct types of painted pottery; Panshan (2600-2300 b.c.) and Mazhang (1200-2000 b.c.), classic examples of which are displayed below and to the left.

Honestly, same, I rarely call it a doodle though, because I'm tired of people getting triggered by it ... But I rarely sketch/thumbnail out things first, sometimes I just want to crosshatch or practice color theory without going through the whole process back and forth.

Since people repeatedly mentioned me calling stuff doodle: A doodle, to me, is anything I do kind of mindlessly; w/o spending much thought/ looking up ref/ cross checking anatomy etc. But I could still do some polish- If it’s really sh’tty & just for practice, I would call it a sketch. :)

October 19th. An illustration of the ‘Visitor’ from The Signalman written by Charles Dickens.

A black crosshatch pen and rolled printmaking ink illustration on white paper of a man out for a stroll in the countryside. The gentleman stands on a track that slopes downhill through farm fields. He is wearing a long coat, bowler hat, walking boots and he carries a walking stick. He gazes towards a puff of steam rising out of a secluded forested valley…a train track. He intends to explore. A grey and gloomy sky overhead. Atmospheric.

Have a pawsome Friday, friends! Please have some adorable toe tips preserved in Romano-Briton terracotta. From Vindolanda Roman Fort in Stanegate, UK.

A shard of Romano-Briton terracotta tile displayed in a museum case. It is scored in a crosshatch pattern and has two dog paw prints pressed into it.

A wall-mounted square Romano-Briton terracotta tile on display in a museum case. It is a deep umber and has six different imprints: three small deer hoofs, two dog paws, and the edge of a sandal.

A wall-mounted square Romano-Briton terracotta tile on display in a museum case. It is a very deep, almost milk chocolate color, with two imprints: a dog paw, and a hook like shape, most likely from an implement the maker would have used to test the readiness of the drying process.

A broken piece of Romano-Briton terracotta tile laying face up. It is a warm, sunny ochre and displays the five small toes and ball of the foot of a child’s step.
