Inktober Day 12: “Shredded”
We break walls, but new ones rise from the cracks. A punch isn’t always liberation. Sometimes it’s repetition.

Inktober Day 11: "Sting"
Liberty has always been fragile. When fear disguises itself as “security,” the sting doesn’t just hit the target, it spreads through the system. Artwork by @mac-creation.bsky.social

Inktober Day 10: "Sweep"

She may have the broom, but the cat clearly has the upper hand. Magic is one thing, cat logic is another.
Anyone else living with a tiny furry agent of chaos?

Inktober Day 9: “Heavy” by @eltischy.bsky.social

The system doesn’t need to defend itself when division does the job.

Inktober Day 8: "Reckless"

A piece by our writer @mac-creation.bsky.social , who turns everyday frustration into quiet commentary. The kind of recklessness we live with isn’t always loud, it is designed into our systems.

Inktober Day 7: “Starfish.”

Michael H. Musal (@nexusprime25.bsky.social), veteran storyteller and mentor, gives us a little wonder: a boy, a starfish, a moment of innocence. It reminds us why we started drawing in the first place.

Inktober Day 6: “Pierce.”
This piece by @eltischy.bsky.social is a refusal to aestheticize violence: whaling isn’t heritage or culture, it’s extinction in progress.

Bonus for today’s Inktober prompt Deer.
Another take by our member Mike, showing the pure beauty of nature.

Inktober Day 4: “Murky.”
Our member Merkenau painted a swamp inspired by the Louisiana bayous: mist, roots, fragile light. It’s moody, atmospheric, and a reminder that Inktober isn’t about medium but about individuality.

Inktober Day 3: “Crown.”
A throne of power, a burning flag, and liberty in the hands of those long denied it. Crowns can mark domination—or liberation.

Inktober Day 2: “Weaving.”
A girl with a woven nest in her hair and sparrows resting close. A gentle reminder that humans and nature are never apart—they’re interlaced.

Inktober begins. “Mustache” is our small tribute to Marlene Dietrich, who defied gender norms and expectations decades before it was widely questioned. A portrait with a twist.
