This was my first time joining inktober. Day 1’s theme was fish. I had no idea we were supposed to do ink art so mine is in colored pencils.
This drawing is based on an event that took place in my son’s pond this summer. One evening I walked outside and  I saw a snake with my son’s goldfish in it’s mouth slithering up a hill. I ran over yelled at the snake and grabbed the fish out of its mouth. The dry dirty goldfish was still making that blub blub face despite being head first in the snakes mouth and having puncture wounds from the fangs of the snake.  I quickly tossed the fish back into the pond and he swam down to the bottom.  I then had to catch the snake because he was relentless and kept trying to get back at the pond to gobble up the fish again. I captured him under a Lowes bucket then had to move him into a pillow case and find him a new home. There was lots of screaming and panic but we got the job done. The Fish Keven is alive and well living in a tank indoors.
Day 2 Wisp. This was the day I realised I couldn’t keep drawing full color pencil drawings every day. It was also the day I realised inktober was for ink drawings. I had never drawn in ink so I didn’t have any inking pens yet. When I thought about meeting a wisp I thought I would want to meet a dog wisp.

Day 3 bulky. My very first ink drawing of inktober drawn in ball point pen. I was waiting for my inking pen order to arrive but it was nice to get a picture done so quickly.
