Playing in my Sketchbook with Ink. INKTOBER Art Challenge.
Playing in my sketchbook for Inktober.
I decided to take part in 'Inktober' during October. The month long daily art challenge, using set prompts. I've never managed to do the whole month before, so was quite surprised I stuck with it.
It was made easier on myself, by just working on quick ideas. The first things that came to mind and all in a sketchbook, rather than any finished perfect pieces.
The video shares the journey.

Spring is flying by here. There have been several walks among the magical bluebells. I finally got around to finishing a project that has been in the making for a while. Printed hare hangers! Just three designs for now, but I do plan to do more. And then there was a trip to see Giffords Circus one chilly misty, rainy May evening, which I thought I'd share. :) Hope you enjoy!

A belated Happy Spring to you! The garden has awoken. Creatures great and small are busy with the circle of life. I've captured some moments I witnessed to share with you. It's been productive behind the scenes, meeting up with family, planning new work, sowing seeds and getting the garden all ready for a new season, so this film is kind of a little mish mash of things as I haven't had much tim...

Great artistry!
This was so peaceful to watch. I often thought of my childhood and how much I loved making miniatures from things I'd find in nature. Thank you for letting my inner child imagine once again.

Oh my, 🥰 stunning work and a beautifully made video as usual 👏🏻👌🏻. I already have some of your cards, art print, calendar and booklets including the fox and the hare, the problem is I never want to post them away!😂. The calendar I am going to re use for 2025, it’s gorgeous, magical, inspiring art. Just bought via your moonlight and hares website this morning some more little treasures. Thank you for your gift of imagination, spirit and skills 🙏🏻🐰🦊🐚🍄🪶🪽🌞🌝✨🩷….and Merry Christmas! 😝🧑🏻🎄🎅🏻Clare xx

@@moonlightandharesHurrah, my cards, notebooks and print have just arrived, speedy service and lovingly packed 🩷. Stunning and so brilliant to see you create the shell house and fox and hare then see the cards with all the details. I got teary with a quiet joy! Thank you once again Karen, that delivery cheered up a dark November day 👌🏻✨🦊🐰🐚xx
This is utterly enchanting. You brightened up a really crap day for me! Thank you xxx
Thank you. Glad to hear it brought some light to your day. ✨💫✨💫
Just stumbled on this, pure magic.
Enchanting and inspirational. Incredibly creative. Unique!
Lovely art!
Thank you ✨
Thank you for sharing, this was a joy to watch. What a beautiful home, such sweet little details. The music was very relaxing. The poem and cards were wonderful as well.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks 🙏
Transported. Thank you ❤
You’re welcome 😊
i watched feeling such peace, such a beautiful little house, literally brought tears to my eyes. i adore every tiny detail.
Aww thank you so much! 🐇🦊🐚💫✨
I'm so grateful that the UA-cam algorithm led me to your video, Karen! It was the perfect antidote to post-election blues in the U.S. and the perfect share to my younger sister, who used to have a mouse house (doll house) for her little stuffed mice, furnished with miniatures made by our (long-gone) mom. I bought two of your Mouse and Hare cards for a dear friend suffering from senior dementia, and messaged her partner, asking him to play the video for her. Blessings from Maggie in Oregon, USA.
Aww thank you Margaret. I hope your friends gets some pleasure from the film too. The mouse house sounds wonderful! 😊🐇🦊💫✨
That brought the tears to my eyes. So enchantingly beautiful, as always, and so lovely to see during these uncertain times. Thank you so very much. :)
My pleasure! Glad you liked it. 🐇🦊💫✨🙂
Thank you for taking us on fox and hares magical journey. It was delightful❤
Glad you enjoyed it! 🦊🐇✨💫🙂
Как же красиво и волшебно у Вас всё получается! Не перестаю восхищаться! Спасибо за счастливые мгновения!❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching 💫✨
Adorable!!! I love it.
I could hear rain in part of your video. I loved it. This process was so enchanting to watch. Your camera work was perfect. I found this so uplifting. I love miniatures and fantasy and I enjoyed watching the thoughtfulness that went into creating this lovely shell house. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂🐇🐚🦊💫✨
❤❤❤❤❤❤
After a pretty awful day I found this video, and now sit perfectly happy and engrossed as you make the house of shells.. Thank you so much for this. The house is beautiful and so are hare and fox. X
Thank you for taking the time to comment. I’m glad you enjoyed and so happy that it cheered your day up. ✨
Wow! Just wow! I love these characters you create. Your artwork is magical and stunning. I have a number of your prints and cards, I just love being part of your world. I know you said you were not doing a calendar for 2025 but I beg you to! I have the current calendar and I love it so much, I was so looking forward to the next one ❤❤
Thank you so much I really appreciate your kind words. I didn’t really do enough new art to put into a new calendar and needed a break really to create other projects and recharge the creative battery. It will be back though for 2026. 🌟
Each one a perfect and creative representation of the prompt, each one a masterpiece!🩵✨
Aw thanks. I do find it quite difficult to just leave things alone, like quick sketches. It was a good exercise for me. I might carry on and do the inktober52 next year? One prompt a week. 💫✨
@moonlightandhares I've never heard of that! I haven't done the Inktober challenge for ages but once a week might be better! I'm going to look it up.☺️xx
what a lovely, lovely work of art. i've been in a a bit of a creative slump, tired of my making my own miniatures... watching this video brought back all the feelings of wonder and joy for me. your hands are so gentle and each little piece of shell and pottery so carefully placed. the driftwood beds and beams, the paper mache walls, the sea glass on the chimney breast... i don't know why, but when you reached the end and put the two beds in the attic i nearly cried. they share a bedroom!! they live together!! in their little cottage of shells built with so much love and care!! there's so much tenderness that brings back the feeling of being a child and picking up sticks and shells and making little things... i watched every second of this and now i'm going to watch it again, because you've inspired me to pick up something small and work on it again. thank you from the bottom of my heart 💕💕☀☀🌿🌿
I’m so happy that you enjoyed it and really glad it’s inspired you to carry on with your own work. It’s lovely to have a little escapism. It’s meditative and good for the soul 🙂
