I love my Cubs and it sucks that they lost to the Brewers and are out of the post-season. That being said, I'm now rooting for Milwaukee here on out. I hope they win the whole damn thing in memory of Bob Uecker.

This #Artober #prompt was Jack-o’-lantern but I also included comfy sweater, hot coco in a caldron. Not outlandish enough for me but i’ll add to it one day soon.

Hasn't been a lot of time for Inktober, but I'm squeezing them in when I can. This one incorporates a few of the prompts: Crown , Murky, and maybe Weave?

Black, gold, and tan Ink illustration of a dragon head and neck framed in the top corner and right side by gnarled, gold branches on a textured white background. The dragon’s neck is cropped through the use of its scales turning into golden drips. It faces left in profile view, its mouth opened with a frightful expression, revealing sharp teeth lined with gold ink at the tips. A tan plume of smoke rises from a flared nostril and the lower lip, reminiscent of a dog’s, is gold. The dragon has one, wide, vacant gold eye visible. It also has a large, branching horn coming from the top of its head, a pointy ear with a wing-like shape, and three, large curving inward horns coming from its cheek, which also flow down the dragon’s spine. The dragon’s underbelly has thin scales that stretch across the neck, while the face and body has more circular to rounded scales. Both types of scales transition into the gold drips; the underbelly scales do not extend as far, and follow more of a line compared to the rounded scales. Surrounding the dragon are sketchier, shaky lines that stand on their own, or extend from the general outline. In the top left corner is a large gold branch thats roots stretch over 2/3 of the top and the rest of the branch down ¾ of the left side. Where the smoke overlaps it, the branch breaks. A few dead, golden leaves hang from the smaller branches. Stretching ¾ up the right side is another golden branch with a smaller root system. It also has a few dead leaves hanging from its branches further up. There are a few watermarks reading “LEAVES AND INKS” in an oak leaf.

Winding through the gnarled trees, down twisting and turning paths,
it’s not hard to lose your way.
If you’re not careful, it’s not hard to lose yourself. 🍂
