Day 2 of #inktober2025 and today’s prompt is Weave. Both the hat and basket are woven and I love how the sunlight illuminates the lavender gatherer’s skirt. This was painted from a royalty free reference photo.

Day 1 of #inktober2025 and today’s prompt is mustache! Today’s painting is a film study from the “newer” Lorax movie (which I still haven’t actually watched because I have good memories of the original 1972 version).
