Happy Halloween! The end of the #Inktober challenge has arrived, and I DID it - I drew and posted an ink drawing every day this month. Thanks so much for all the positive comments, and for sticking with me - I always hate to bombard people with posts. Question: Which of the 31 sketches I posted was your favorite? I absolutely need to make this part of my daily routine - I forgot how much fun it is to draw just for drawing's sake. #inktober #clown #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

Here's the latest illustration I created for a documentary about horror and heavy metal - Regan from the Exorcist. If you have some time to kill, go google the behind the scenes history behind the Exorcist films - it's like the whole series was cursed. #horror #monster #excorcist #art #digital #mangastudio #illustration #instaart #instaartwork #instaartist #instaartpop #artist #artshow #creative #artwork #followme

Just a couple days away from the end of the #Inktober challenge, and it looks like I'm going to make it (and not miss a day). Here's a nice drawing of a guy who looks like Abe Lincoln for absolutely no reason at all. #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

On the 27th Day of #Inktober , my pen brush brought to me, some kind of weird naked creature with bad teeth and misshapen head. #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

It's Day 26 of the #Inktober challenge, and it's time of a big angry screaming flaming head. Long overdue I think. Would love to make a tshirt from this. #inktober #ink #face #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

(shoot forgot to post this last night) Back to back #tiki ink drawings for #Inktober ! This was a concept I had sketched out a while ago and always wanted to bring it to life. I really dig this idea - I might take this further and make it into a t-shirt design at some point. #inktober #tiki #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

For day 23 of the #Inktober challenge, I drew this ink drawing of a bookish squid monster. I'm not sure why, but this is one of my favorites for the whole month. Thanks for all the positive feedback, people! #inktober #squid #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

Day 16 of #Inktober is here, and I still haven't missed a day. Though I've had to spend less time on some of these than I had wanted. Today's drawing is an angry fish. Thanks for all the great feedback and support with these, means a lot! #inktober #ink #fish #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

This drawing I did for #Inktober Day 15 shows another one of my early sources of inspiration - Todd McFarlane from Spawn. This wasn't meant to look like the Violator character when I started drawing, but it turned out that way. Pro Drawing Tip: If your character isn't looking great, stick a cigar in his mouth. Problem solved. #inktober #ink #sketch #clown #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

#Inktober 12th! I'm happy to say that I haven't missed a day yet. It's sometimes a little painful coming up with something new to draw everyday. #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #nailthroughthehead #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

It's the 9th of #Inktober! I was trying to do a little something different, inspired by the mech ink drawings of Jake Parker, the artist that started this whole nonsense. #robot #ink #bunny #art #illustration #tshirt #art #instaart #instaartist #picoftheday #igdaily #followme

Day 5 of #Inktober! This is a little throwback to a clown face I used to draw a lot when i didn't know what else to draw.

Third day of #InkTober! I'm really enjoying forcing myself to just have some quick sketching fun on paper again - I need to make this part of my daily routine when October is over. I came up with this idea of alien bug serving sushi. Genius? Ridiculous? Perhaps we'll never know. #inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #sushi #conceptart #instaartist #brianallen

Day 2 of #InkTober! So here's a pen and ink sketch of Man-Worm (or Worm-Man, still deciding). I wish I had a clever artistic reasoning to explain why this image exists, but I've got nothing. Thanks for all the love on my first sketch - I'm really excited about this - I haven't been this motivated to create my own stuff in a while. #inktober #worm #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen

I'm going to be participating in #InkTober this year, which is an artist challenge started by Jake Parker where we have to draw and post a new ink drawing (traditional, no digital!) every day of the month of October. I'm really excited about it, because I really need to force myself to spend more time drawing just for me (no offense, Mr. Client). Here is the first drawing in the series. Thanks for your support! #inktober #tribal #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen
