October 2025 Hobonichi

October Hobonichi pages! Pretty spotty and inconsistent, but still better than nothing. Really should have done more spooky-Halloween-y type drawings!

A rough sketch using acrylic paint markers. It shows the silhouettes of people with a net and blobs of colour inside - meant to be a fishing net. Behind them is a body of water with the rough shapes of many boats. The sketch is captioned “Thinking of the Palestinians who could fish while the flotilla was targeted.”
A sketchbook page with a sticker in the middle. The circular sticker is from the Canadian Blood Services and says “First time donor. Be nice to me, I’m new!”. Radiating out from the sticker are drawings of blood drops.
A sketch of a crab and a bald eagle in acrylic markers. Text on the drawings says “Today I learner: a group of crabs is a “cast” or “consortium”. A group of eagles is a “soar” or a “convocation”.
An abstract drawing of swirling black lines done with a brush pen.
A drawing with washy bleeds of blue and green ink. The drawing is of a small woodpecker with a red head in a tree branch. It’s captioned: “Woodpecker I saw. Red naped sap sucker?”
A drawing with black and blue ink bleeds. The drawing is of dark clouds with heavy rainfall.
A conte sketch of a naked person standing with one leg crossed behind the other. Next to it “went to life drawing” is written.
A brush pen ink sketch of a dog, seen from behind, looking out a window. He is partly framed by a large monsterra leaf. It is captioned “Lenny looking out the window”
A conte sketch of a cartoony dog eagerly begging, a thought bubble over his head showing a drawing of sushi rolls. The drawing is captioned “Lenny visited Oma for the first time.”
