2023 Prompt List! Are you ready??!
Hello!
Believe it or not the Inktober challenge is almost a month away.
We are excited to jump into a creative mindset each day and reconnect to our inner creative spark. We hope that this little challenge can be a creative light to guide your artistic spirit over the next couple of months.
We can’t wait to see what you draw this year!
When Inktober was started there were a few goals in mind, and these have not changed in the 13+ years the challenge has been running. The Inktober goals are:
Help artists get better at drawing
Help artists find other cool artists
Help artists grow an audience for their work
Before we get to the prompt list, we'd like to thank these Inktober 2023 Partners who are closely aligned with our goals and are doing great things to benefit the Inktober community:
Kuretake - Focus Retreat Center - SVSlearn
When you get a minute go check them each out.
ok...are you ready for the prompts?

Inktober Artist Retreat!
Thanks to the outpouring of interest in the 2nd annual Inktober Artist Retreat, the week of Oct 16 is nearly sold out! We are adding another retreat week starting Oct 25, which will close out with a Halloween Party.Â
Are you looking for an inspiring in-person community of artists excited about ink and artistic development? Click to hear last year's artists express what the retreat meant to them and how this retreat could advance your craft.
Well, this is it! We are looking forward to seeing all the incredible art, and finding new artists this year!
Thank you,
The Inktober Team
I like doing them day of for the challenge, but like that I can think about it prior. Thank you!
Thank you! I also enjoy taking the challenge and hope to finish every one. I look forward to it each year, even if it’s for viewing and cheering on fellow Artists. Your work is very much appreciated and I know it should be historically preserved. In the least, it’s in our history! Happy inking everyone!
