It’s October and at St John’s Priory we like to take part in #Inktober. The idea of Inktober is to draw every day throughout the month of October using pen and ink. This is a brilliant way to improve your drawing and inking skills. By drawing every day you are able to greatly improve your muscle memory for drawing and work on new styles or techniques.
Children in Year 2 and up have been provided with sketchbooks for the project and this year there will be prizes for the best Inktober books at the end of the month. I will be looking for imaginative interpretations of the prompts, good technical drawing skills and overall improvement.
Here is this years prompt list:
Make sure to share your daily drawings with your friends, family and with myself in our art lessons.
Here are some of the excellent pieces of work I have already seen in the first week:
Keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing more of your Inktober drawings.
