Art process

At first I wanted to depict misty lake for today inktober challenge with a snake swimming in it. But I've got an opinion that have too many snakes that people can conclude that I'm a snakes fanatic. So my next attempt is gryphon which mught be not less mystical than misty lake. Have you ever been in a stack with challenge prompt?

I really believe than art-deco/art-nuvo style patterns still can be on demand nowadays.  I found a book by Eugene Grasser on pattern making and believe it can be a good base to build a decorative graphics making skill.

Today Inktober challengers have prompt RAM. RAM is very picturesque - I think thera are really diversity of variants we can depict the topic.

I feel myself a fanatic about vectorize everything. And not sure how overcome my belief. Be-lie-f. I spent a month to vectoze box of decorative pumpkins. Not sure if that worth all efforts I have to devote. Adobe tells that it gives discount on its soft for those contributors who will submit more than thouthand works in a half year period. So continuing work in same tempo never bring me to meaningful result. I know that haloween comes soon and some art compositions containing pumpkins. So we will see.  I plan to report when November start. What do you think on usefulness of vector? Vector pumpkins file  

I suppose most of Inktober2026 participants associates 'PANIC' with Munc painting, I'm not an excetion. I think ' ogre ' keyword practice hepled me a lot with snake drawing. P. S.
