Book Cover Design “From The Outside Looking In by Joseph E. Slyker” ©2019 alecia goodman to present
I got a wonderful mail surprise today. This book is special to the Slyker family. It documents Joseph’s career, allowing him to share stories with his family; giving them an inside look. I was the cover designer and through Under Wraps Publishing Services formatted the inside. Thank you so much Slyker family for letting me be a part of this special project and for sending me the book.
Somehow I survived Inktober, though a couple of pens and kneaded erasers didn’t make it. Finished all 31 days, only had to go about a week into November. A concept and drawing a day is hard to keep up. Well now that its done, which drawing was your absolute favorite and why? Please comment with your favorite. Remember all drawings and prints of drawings are for sale, just contact me for more information. #Inktober #Inktober2018 #wrap #ink #drawings #art

Boom, DONE… wrapping up Inktober with Ripe the last drawing. Thank goodness I’m finally finished. I love doing this, but time is a hot commodity. Maybe next year I’ll actually get done on time. I survived this round and I’m fairly certain my dabbling in ink has improved every year. Not every drawing is brilliant. I’m drawing and personally that’s more of the point. I’ll be taking a short break after posting the final wrap up since I have editing and design work to tackle. #Inktober #Inktober2019 #ripe #blackberry #shiny #juicy #fruit #ink #drawing #InktoberDay31

Inktober Day 30 Catch, almost done. I just have one more to go. Ridiculous that this year has been so hard to keep up with it. This one may be a bit simpler, but I really like the pose and line work. #Inktober #Inktober2019 #catch #woman #ink #drawing #art #beauty #star

Inktober Day 29 Injured, yes this one is hard to look at. It’s not pretty, in fact I would say its ugly and painful … not the woman, but what was done to her. No she didn’t walk into a door. Domestic Violence is ugly and should never be ignored. #Inktober #Inktober2019 #injured #domesticviolence #woman #beaten #abuse
I’ve included a link below that is a beautifully choreographed dance that visually represents the relationship of a man and a woman in a domestic violence situation. Video against domestic violence.
“Inktober Day 28 Ride” ©2019 alecia goodman to present
Finally I’m back to finish up Inktober. The end of October was overwhelming with headaches, Halloween, deadlines, and our annual Halloween party.
So anyways, Inktober Day 28 is Ride. I almost drew the more obvious like a motorcycle or dirt bike which honestly I would love to do. I wanted to attempt more of a twist. Besides I saw a good handful of these guys trying to attack my garden not too long ago. I also thought drawing the muscle and wet look could be fun and challenging.
So Norman decided he wanted some bling and work as a home decorator. It’s a bit reminiscent of “Shiny” from Moana. Though it’s not sparkly, it goes back to the roots of nature. #Inktober #Inktober2019 #ride #snail #plant #wet #mucus #ink #drawing #art
“Inktober Day 27 Coat” ©2019 alecia goodman to present
This how I wish I could wear a coat right now. Somehow it seems we have skipped Fall and dove right smack into winter. I have broken out my wool socks as it’s just too cold for me. How do you stay warm? #Inktober #Inktober2019 #coat #winter #warm #woman #ink #drawing
