#InkTober #17 -Part 2- Observation
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Oct.21, 2024, under Illusration
After the color marker check, i started with trying out a red marker and then switched to a working black marker and scrawled egret and squirrel. Thus InkTober #17-Part 2.
In this case, I don’t believe, the chat area influenced much this drawing.
Inked with a STA brush pen live, with no plan. Mae up as I drew.

Started InkTober #17 testing many, many color markers live during my YouTube program.

#InkTober #15 – Happy Birthday & Gopher Tortoise!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Oct.16, 2024, under Cartooning
The #InkTober #15 live broadcast over on YouTube celebrated little Mason’s 5th birthday.
Happy Birthday, Mason!
(He was harder to draw for me as his newest haircut made him look so much different than I knew him as!)
Also after a nearby visit to Turkey Creek Sanctuary earlier in the day came up in the chat and I drew a common resident at the park, a gopher tortoise.
All made up as I inked. No pencils or plans.

#InkTober #10 – Drawing a Crowd.
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Oct.15, 2024, under Caricatures, Cartooning
October 10th had me improvising what popped up in the chat area for InkTober #10. This was the 2nd drawing. One visiting was from “somewhere near Minnesota and Michigan”, thus the map. Mention of Minnesota had me remember, my old pal & caricaturist, Greg Gray. Banjos, laughing dogs, dinosaurs, Chinese and My Little Pony all became part of the chat area.
Made up as I drew.

#InkTober #10 – Buffalo Football !
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Oct.13, 2024, under Cartooning, Illusration
October 10th’s InkTober #10 recorded over on YouTube had a visitor from northern New York. I asked her about Rochester. She said it was nearby. That got me talking about the great Dave “Bippy” Boyer, caricaturist, Rochester Good Will Ambassador and all around good egg. Thus, I started scrawling Bippy.
That led to mention of the Buffalo Bills and my drawing Bippy as a skilled football player.
This led me to mentioning another friend and good egg, Jennifer Huber, avid Buffalo Bills fan. That had me adding her dog, Radcliffe, and cats into the game. Jennifer to the side, cheering.
Chat turned to viking helmets and Bippy gets assistance of a lad donned with viking chapeau.
The live drawing of this and others from October 10th can be sen here:

#InkTober #7 – Florida Panther Stroll
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Oct.08, 2024, under Illusration
#InkTober #7 – Florida Panther Stroll.
This is a drawing I started at an event for politician Thad Altman. I promised to get it done and did during the meeting tonight involving the candles.
I’d initially started with thick brush pens illustrating the panthers. Tonight all else was added with a thin Sipa brush pen.
No pencils. Made up as I inked. 17″x 14″ sketch paper.
