Since my step daughter isn’t here for every day of the month of October, I started working on Inktober with her in September. Also, one drawing a day can be rough for a 9-year-old so we are trying to space the project out a bit for her. The first drawing was a bit rough on her already. We’re still working on learning to do the basics, like drawing lighter to make it easy to erase and sketching out the basic layout before starting on details.
Inktober’s first drawing prompt is Crystal. Here is mine and my step daughter’s interpretation:

I did a couple practice versions before I decided on the heart. I looked at an example so it wasn’t perfect. My step daughter looked at one of her gem books from the library to draw inspiration from. I think it’s pretty decent. What do you think?
Apologies if the October posts are a bit shorter. I’m going to be focusing on drawing a lot this month so it’ll be more visual that textual. See you guys, tomorrow!
