Hey, it's Chewie (@chewie_co). At 60 years young, I'm a self-taught artist here to share my Inktober Takeover. Currently calling Milan, Italy home, and reflecting on my incredible journey. Believe it or not, I only picked up drawing five years ago! As a child, I harbored dreams of becoming an artist, but life took me on a different path. I ventured into corporate roles, leaving my passion for art behind. Then, at 55, life threw me a curveball—I lost my job. Reentering the workforce at this stage was daunting, to say the least. Amid my uncertainty, my daughter reignited a spark within me. She reminded me of my childhood aspirations, urging me to reignite my artistic flame. And so, armed with determination and an ink pen, I embarked on a journey back to my artistic roots. Engraving styles and images of ancient ships danced in my mind as I began to sketch daily.
Hi Chewie, My name is John, and though I started later than you, I’m catching up. I picked up pen and started about age 65. This is great retirement stuff. So… I’m looking for the 52 - 2024 prompt list. I see that you have it shown here but it is behind a week, stopping at 16 weeks. Do you have the week 17? Thanks.
