October 1st was the start of Inktober.
The point of Inktober is to improve drawing skills, develop good habits, and push creative limits:
Develop a daily drawing habit
Inktober is a month-long challenge where participants create an ink drawing every day in October. It can take about a month to make a habit automatic.
Push creative limits
Inktober gives participants the opportunity to use their imagination and find creative solutions.
Get more exposure for your art
One of the rules of Inktober is to share your work with others.
Learn how to complete a project
Inktober can help participants learn how to work through day-to-day challenges and complete a project
Here are a few drawings students created yesterday:
8th graders attended the CareerSpark field trip at the Civic Center today. CareerSpark is an interactive, multi-industry career expo.
