Inktober 2019: #20, 21, 22

Oh, I am so, so, so far behind with my Inktober 2019 drawings.  What can I say?  I will say that other diversions have been there, mostly enjoyable ones.

Okay, on to our Inktober 2019 drawings.

#20:  Tread

I thought of “Don’t tread on me,” tire treads, shoe treads.  Guess which won.

#21:  Treasure

So many things came to mind for treasure – people you love, family, health, and piles of pirate gold.  I think that last one is the easiest to draw.

#22:  Ghost

As Halloween and Samhain draw close, ghosts and hauntings emerge.  As a kid, dressing as a ghost was always a favorite for trick-or-treat.  A ghost family portrait, complete with the bunny ears / devil’s horns so popular in our family photos.

More to come!

Inktober 2019: #15 Legend

If you didn’t grow up in the 50s, the mask and hat may mean nothing to you.  If you did, perhaps you remember the TV show The Lone Ranger. It was my favorite show when I was a kid. We all wore cowboy and cowgirl outfits, complete with masks and six-shooters filled with rolls of caps. Bang! Bang! We all imagined riding horses over the wild hills, chasing bandits. I found Tonto especially cool because he was an Indian, played by Jay Silverheels (even his name was great!).  There were several people who played The Lone Ranger, but the one I remember is Clayton Moore.

Interestingly, I remember the actors’ names after all these years!
