Inktober 2016




I decided to take part in Inktober 2016 as a challenge. Though it was a great pleasure, it challenged my abilities to plan and apportion time for it. I decided to challenge myself with subjects and styles that I normally do not attempt. 

Within a matter of a month, a lot changed. 

I shared the works everyday on Instagram, once in a while on Twitter and Facebook. My idea was to share all of them on Facebook and this post is the main reason for doing that. 

Even though I drew everyday, I had to miss a couple of days at the end of the month since I was on a holiday in Port Blair, Andaman. The last day there, however, I could draw. 

I hope you enjoy these.
