I thought I told myself that I wasn't going to do Inktober this year. But then a Catholic theme list came up (#Catholinktober), and I caved in. It is the reason why you haven't seen much artwork posted here. There is plenty to share, it is just waiting for some free time to put it on this blog. Instagram, Twitter and Facebook have had daily postings during October. So here is a brief selection from the last 30 days: The Chaste Heart of St Joseph inspires love and trust in everyone. A version of the icon of the Mother of God of Tenderness. New Testament Character: Ananias getting the message from God that he is to go and visit Saul, the persecutor of the Christians. For the feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary, a decade of the rosary depicted with a big red rose for the Our Father, ten blue-white roses for the Hail Marys, and a triple golden ball for the Glory Be to honour the Most Holy Trinity. The hands are offering it as prayer, and the twelve stars are there to remind us of the crown of Mary, and her receiving the bouquet. Charity in action.
Only one more to go, and the theme for that one is a title of the Virgin Mary. Whatever passes for normal might return soon. :)

Inktober for 2019 is almost over, apart from the drawing I am working on now, there are only 2 more black & white Socket Head drawings to go. It has been a worthwhile personal discipline, but whether it has had any additional value remains to be seen. I doubt I will attempt it again. Here are a selection of 5 drawings from the series: From Day 15, theme 'Legend' From Day 16, theme Wild From Day 17, theme Ornament From Day 22, theme Ghost From Day 24, theme Dizzy The rest of them you can see on my Instagram (@cavanaghcreative), Twitter (@VJCavanagh) and Facebook accounts.
