What completing the Inktober drawing challenge can teach you
<p>This year, I participated in the Inktober drawing challenge for the third time. For every day in October, I drew an original ink drawing according to the challenge’s prompts and shared my results on Instagram.</p>
<p>The Inktober challenge was started by American artist Jake Parker as a way to improve his inking skills. It’s since become a global movement, and this year’s Inktober has been the biggest yet. The hashtag <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/inktober2019/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">#inktober2019</a> has been used for over 5.3 million posts on Instagram. It’s even making <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-us-canada-50224935/the-man-behind-the-inktober-viral-drawing-challenge" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">news headlines</a>.</p>

<p>The prompt list for this year.</p>
<p>I’m not someone who gets fanatic about things but I push myself to finish this challenge every year, without fail. The amount of growth and enthusiasm I have for drawing during this time blows my mind.</p>
<p>Besides having more pieces for my portfolio, I’ve learned some important lessons. About myself, being bravely confident, and getting the best out of my time and skillset.</p>
