September has been a little quiet on the sketching front. I’ve done a few sketches in my regular sketchbook to keep me sane, but it’s still less than I’d like. I’ve spent a lot of my free time trying to put together Ink Kuppi’s 2026 calendar, and I think it will keep me occupied throughout October as well. I’ve also been exploring a few sketches for a potential sticker sheet, and I’d rather share those when the final designs are ready.


I am loath to participate in Inktober (this post illustrates my feelings perfectly.) But lately I’ve been looking at tutorials and videos on improving inking techniques, and I’ve been meaning to clean out my old brushes and dip pen nibs to practice a bit. Will post those next month.
