"Every October, artists all over the world take on the InkTober drawing challenge by doing one ink drawing a day the entire month. [Jake Parker] created InkTober in 2009 as a challenge to improve inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavor with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year."
