Post-Inktober Days 8-11. I've slowly added many layers of ink wash and even more masking fluid. Tomorrow, I will remove the blue masking fluid (scary!) and add the final details.

Post-Inktober Days 6-7. I got to test out the horizontal capabilities of my new easel with the first couple of layers of ink wash. It's so fun to paint with a big brush after all of that painstaking work.

Post-Inktober Days 3-5. I am finished filling in the lines and I am ready to start ink wash! I had to spend about an hour erasing the last of the pencil. I don't think I've ever been so happy to do that.

Post-Inktober Days 1-2. I'm almost done with the craziness at the top of this tree. By far the hardest part of this whole drawing so far.

Inktober Day 31. This is how far I made it in 31 days. I'm going to keep posting daily until it's finished. My dog is judging my progress on the second slide Lol.

Inktober Days 29-30. I really like the crown of this tree. It's chaotic and scraggly and definitely gives off that essence of Halloween.

Inktober Day 28. I feel like I'm getting somewhere. I've been playing around with various ink wash and masking fluid ideas while working (slide 3).

Inktober Day 27. I just have to keep going. Today I've been watching both Monster: The Ed Gein Story and The Exorcist.

Inktober Day 26. I'm getting impatient and I want to break out the ink wash. I have at least two days before I get to that point, I think.

Inktober Day 23. The branch is no longer naked. I'm really questioning if I will finish this by October 31 lol

Inktober Day 19. Okay, I know this bottom part looks totally insane right now, but bear with me. It's only the first layer haha.

Inktober Day 17-18. I didn't have any time to draw yesterday. That was part of the plan since I knew it would be too busy. This is what I drew on Friday. I'm back on it tonight!

Inktober Day 12. The top of this tree is a ridiculous maze. I've started improvising branches that I like better than the original in some areas.

Inktober Day 11. I reached the top of the trunk! 29 inches of that texture (about 74 cm).

Inktober Day 10. I worked on this big section of snarled branches today. It took a while to get all of those lines correct without making too much of it pure black.
