Inktober - Day #02 "Tranquil"
The second day of the Inktober challenge is here, according to the official list the theme for today's illustration is "Tranquili", ah what a wonderful theme to express feelings, so take my pencil with serenity and let the lines speak for themselves.

Seeking to convey that feeling of peace, I have drawn a pretty girl lying on her bed (or at least something very comfortable) in the most relaxed way possible, as we can see that she has not even bothered to comb her hair, in addition to being a little light of clothes.
Materials:
- White leaf (A4) 180 gr
- Black fine point marker
- Black ballpoint pen
- Mechanical pencil 0.7 HB
-Step 1:
-Step 2:
-Step 3:
Go adding shadows little by little and carefully, use the finest marker you have to make the details, remember not to press too hard, so avoid unwanted stains.
-Step 4:
Finally add a background, not necessarily must be so detailed, in this case I wanted to give strength to the girl within the illustration, so I put it inside a very comfortable oval (but not the most perfect I have done).
What is inktober?
The inktober is an initiative created by the illustrator Jake Parker in 2009, in order to improve his artistic skills, although over the years has made a great impact on the international artistic community. The challenge is to make a drawing with ink every day, hence its name, "ink" (ink) "tober" (October), although for the most part this is respected, many other artists prefer to stay in their comfort zone, so you can see illustrations made with watercolors, graphite, charcoal, digital and any existing technique.
