Time Keeps Ticking and Tocking Forward

Even if the apps we use don't

INKTOBER52 PROMPT NO.3 IS “TICK TOCK”

The rhythmic sound of a clock can spark countless creative ideas. Imagine the passage of time personified as an ancient creature, the hands of a clock transforming into a city skyline, or a surreal hourglass that spills dreams instead of sand. Let the steady tick-tock inspire scenes of suspense, nostalgia, or even urgency. From grandfather clocks to pocket watches, there’s a world of visual storytelling waiting to be unlocked.

Now, let’s twist time in another direction. With talks of a potential TikTok ban making headlines, it’s a perfect moment to reclaim those scrolling hours and channel them into art. Instead of losing yourself in an endless feed, why not create something that reflects the way social media eats up time? Draw a spiraling vortex of apps, or sketch a "TikTok hourglass" counting down to creative breakthroughs. Whether it’s the sound of a clock or the time spent on TikTok, this week’s prompt is your chance to turn fleeting moments into something timeless.
