INKTOBER

InkTober is a challenge created by Jake Parker in 2009 ( http://mrjakeparker.com/inktober ) . In every October, artists from all over the world can take on the drawing challenge by doing ONE ink drawing every day for the entire month , meaning that total would be 31 pieces of ink drawings for the entire month.Mr Jake Parker, the creator of InkTober in year 2009 had mentioned that he created InkTober to improve his inking skills and also develop a positive drawing habit. He also mentioned that anyone can do InkTober , just grab a pen and start drawing.

InkTober Rules :
1) Make a drawing in ink (you can do a pencil under-drawing if you want).

2) Post it online

3) Hashtag it with #inktober and #inktober2016

4) Repeat
Note: you can do it daily, or go the half-marathon route and post every other day, or just do the 5K and post once a week. What ever you decide, just be consistent with it. INKtober is about growing and improving and forming positive habits, so the more you’re consistent the better.

That's it! Now go make something beautiful.

Many people have done Inktober and they have been posting their drawings online such as on Instagram.  >>>  https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/inktober/?hl=en 
In my opinion, I think that InkTober has become a great influence for motivating people to draw more, especially a procrastinator and perfectionist like me. There is nothing perfect, and we won’t improve if we don’t allow ourselves to make mistakes in our drawings, so keep going and just keep drawing.

Ozabu

     Ozabu is an artist who draws soft and smooth drawings that are related to Japanese extracts with mechanical pencil. Ozabu's drawings are usually very light and soft. Just like Dimitra Milan, Ozabu's passion for arts was big influence by her parents. However, as a self-taught artist, Ozabu did not use any reference books nor does any research on what the other artists use to draw and such. Instead, Ozabu would see a piece in person and analyze it, teaching herself the technique and trying out different tools until she understands how the piece was created.      I have realized that Ozabu often draws gory drawings, some of them even reminded me of "death" even though her drawings are very beautiful. According to the interview, Ozabu's inspirations often come from her feelings and experiences, and she experienced death of someone important in her life. Therefore, her drawings included some funeral elements as they are gre...

Your Name (君の名は / Kimi no Na wa): trailer

Assignment 1      Our assignment 1 is to watch a movie, do research on it and write about it, then based on the art movements and the story of the movie, create another story thus produce the final video on YouTube. I chose to write Kimi No Na Wa as it was a fantastic Japanese movie that managed to be a hit. Kimi No Na Wa, is a mix of emotions, a fantasy romance film with interesting contents that keep the movie to be refreshing all the way to the end. This movie also contained plot twist that keeps the audience wondering to get the right answer.      Kimi No Na Wa has included few art movements such as post-modernism and dadaism, Post-modernism is a broad movement that involves 20th century like philosophy, architecture, art, and the rest, which is very obvious in this movie. Besides, dadaism is an art movement that shows avant-garde. It could mean plot twist, disagreement between the characters like the heroine(Mistsuha) and her father. Dadaism ...
