Double the Workload -Inktober
My 29th drawing for Inktober
The Inktober prompt suggestion for day 29 is Double. In this image the worker has been given double the workload. Tick-tock, tick-tock, the clock is getting close to 5pm, but with a full in tray they are unlikely to be leaving their desk anytime soon.

I have decided to get out my ink pen and join in with Inktober, you can find more details about Inktober on the website: https://inktober.com/.
Creating the drawing
The image was sketched out in pencil, then the main lines were draw in using drawing ink and a dip pen.
Areas of the paper that I wanted to remain white had wax rubbed over the top. I then applied layers of drawing ink and water. Once dry, black and white water-based paints were used to add highlights and line definition.

I feel a bit like chap number three in your drawing ;)
I SO want to use the prompt 'double' but not sure I can eek out one more ink before the 31 leaves us!
Today it is heavy rain here in Kent and I can't help look at the map and see that Devon and Cornwall are sunny. I had originally planned to settle there, but thought the distance to London was too great...I'd love some sun right now, though I LOVE the English rain, today, with so much to do, it is making me want to nap not go to banks and look at houses :/
Sorry, off on a tangent. I love your drawing and I love that you are killing it with keeping up with this #inktober, well done you!
The light at this time of year can be energy zapping when the sun is hiding on wet days. But the rain also makes it a green and pleasant land, so just invest in a good pair of wellington boots - you will need them!
Only one more Inktober drawing to go now, then I'll have a rest. I was still working on this one at 11pm tonight!
@opheliafu hello dear friend excellent work, I do not know why I saw myself represented in the. congratulations for the beautiful job
I wish you a happy rest
More work, less pay - a common theme.
A very representative picture of what we live many daily, working overtime just to meet the demands of the company! Pretty creative I really liked
Thank you @gvand for sharing your thoughts on this theme.
Very good job @opheliafu. A perfect drawing with a lot of meaning. So we are many at the end of the month and with a lot of work to finish, hahaha. I loved it. It's close to October and go to rest. A hug.
Glad you enjoyed this piece @aurodivys!
In many parts of the world, something similar is happening in many workplaces at this moment, very creative your #Inktober.
Yes, it feels that way @yanes94
Oh wow, story of my life.
This is legendary!
I wish I had a bit more time on this one - I fancied putting a Hitchcock style silhouette behind the figure slumped over his desk.
An amazing drawing 👌👍
