In 2017 I participated in Inktober, a yearly challenge to improve one’s inking skills by doing an ink drawing every day in October. 2017 was my first year participating, and I successfully completed the challenge!
I will mention that the reason these all are watermarked with a name other than Taylor Johnson: At the time I was still going by a pen name. Julian Jaymes was my online alias for a few years, and while I have since converted it (and the site) to my real name, it does remain in some places.
Regardless, here are, in order, my 31 illustrations from Inktober 2017:
Day 1: “Autumn Nature”
Day 2: “Creepy Doll”
