Hello! I’m Matti Westerlund and I’m thrilled to be featured on the Inktober account! I’m a Graphic Designer by day and a freelance illustrator by night. I studied and graduated in this profession, but I have been drawing for as long as I can remember.
I have illustrated children’s books and comics, and all sorts of things mainly children’s culture, but I also do magazine illustrations. I have also been teaching art in schools.
I started doing Inktober in 2017 and in the process I realized I hadn’t been drawing just for fun that much anymore. So it was great doing that again! It’s a form of playing, that I hope I will never stop.
Enjoy our featured artist and friend of the week, Matti Westerlund! His work is featured today on our story. He is an inspiration for us as we enter the new year! Check it out on our Instagram page today!
Each week we have a different artist share their work. These are a few of our most recent favorites!

INKTOBER52 GOES ALL YEAR LONG!
INKTOBER52 PROMPT NO.2 IS "PUPPET"
From Pinocchio to the Muppets, puppets are many of our first looks into creativity and make-believe! Lucky for you, this week’s prompt should have more than enough inspiration behind it, so show us what you’ve got.
