I’n already seeing videos and posts about Inktober so here is my annual reminder that:
- you do not have to participate if you don’t want to or can’t
- art challenges like these are not a contest, it’s a marathon
- Most ppl wont finish the challenge and that’s totally fine and normal
- It’s not healthy nor should it be expected to push yourself to draw a full artwork every day.
Most artists can start and finish an artwork in one day, but most will not be able to do that routine for 31 days in a row unless it is already a part of their daily routine.
If making a finished piece once a day isnt part of your everyday routine then challenges like Inktober will be absolute hell for you. You will feel like a failure for losing steam after a few days or a week in, or injure your drawing hand from pushing yourself every day - and no art challenge in the world is worth damaging your body. full stop.
Inktober, and similar art challenges, are just a stress-test/crunch the way they are today. In a better world, Inktober would have included September and November. September would be “Sketchtember” for planning and sketching all the pieces, and November would just be the current “huevember” where you color the drawings you inked during inktober. That’s how a healthier art challenge should be done.

Pansy study done. Violas and pansies are probably my favorite flowers. So many shapes and colors in such a small package.
