This week’s colors in @Kim_Johnson ‘s Color Crazy Challenge are black and white.
When you say “black and white”, I think “Inktober“:) It’s a great challenge for artists. Rules are simple: do one ink drawing every single day of October. Then post it online and hashtag with #inktober. Also there is an official prompt list, that you may follow or you may choose your own topics instead.
I decided to draw birds and follow the official prompt list. Here are some of my works and I want to know, will you identify these birds on my small black-and-white drawings?

Beautiful drawings. I have 4 out of 8
Thank you for playing and for the compliment!
Since I do not know much about birds, I am satisfied with 4/8
Good result! Thank you for playing!
6/8 Wonderful works! 🙂
Great result, thank you for playing!
5/8, not so good. I never much cared for ink, it’s an unforgiving medium. But you seem to know your way around a pen…
Not bad result.Thank you! I like this medium, but I’m just learning:)
Really? You seem to be an old hand at it. Such clean linework doesn’t come easy to the novice…
Well, I’m not a novice in drawing – i studied at the art school. But then i had a long break – when i had a full time job and hadn’t any time for art… What about ink and liners – i can say that i’m a novice in this technique and it was my first Inktober:) And i did pencil sketches – my works couldn’t turn out good without it:)
Pencil lines and ink lines are two different things. You must have a natural affinity for pens…
Wow! It is not bad at all. I got 5 out of 8. In fact, I am not familiar with those birds.
Thank you for playing and for your comment!
it was a very positive experience. he was on top of things and when asked to do revisions was quick and happy to do so
I am curious to know you score. Mine is not bad at all. I got 5 out of 8.
You got 5 out of 8 right!
Great
The three mistakes are because I doubt my choice, and I should regret a little bit! While your inktober pictures are all cool!
Thank you for playing and for your kind words!:)
You are welc?me, Lapka
I got five correct. I love that you did a quiz for the challenge. Way to think outside the box. Love it!!!!!! The artwork is fabulous as well. : D
Thank you so much for your appreciation!
Got 7 correct, I am definitely into birds!
Great result, thank you for playing!
Totally enjoyed this one, great job!
I’m glad you like it:)
Marvelous drawings! Thanks to them, I got 7 out of 8. 🙂
Thank you for playing and for your kind words!
I got 5 out of 8 – but the three I got wrong were more a result of my lack of knowledge than any lack of skill on your part, Lapka. Beautiful work and a fun quiz 🙂
Thank you so much for your appreciation! Hope, you learned some new facts about birds, like I did during this Inktober:)
