Inktober 2026 artists take on the 'beacon' prompt with Lovecraftian flair

Original: Inktober 2026 : beacon/balise «Je contemplai la cité engloutie, ses édifices, ses arches, ses statues et ses ponts, ains

Artists are posting their entries for Inktober 2026, the annual October drawing challenge, with the day's prompt 'beacon'. One French-speaking illustrator paired their ink drawing of a sunken city with a quote from H. P. Lovecraft's 1920 story 'The Temple', depicting drowned buildings, arches, statues and a colossal temple. The piece is being shared and appreciated under the MastoArt tag.

Why now: Inktober is running now and artists are sharing daily prompt drawings, which attracts attention and engagement across art communities.
