Sohar Fort, Oman

I lived in Oman for a few years in the early 1970s at which time the old forts in the country had not yet been renovated. This one was at Sohar, little more than a fishing village, but strategically important for its position in the north of Oman.

Inktober was created by Jake Parker in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavor with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year.
