Inktober | Day 9

🖊 Inktober Artist Tag – Day #9

Welcome to Day 9 of my Inktober challenge! Each day, I’m drawing a different prompt with a simple Catholic twist. Today’s theme is “Heavy”, and I chose to reflect on The Carrying of the Cross.


Today’s Drawing Prompt: “Heavy”

🕊 The Carrying of the Cross

This was the first idea that came to mind when I saw the prompt “heavy.” I suppose I could’ve done Aquinas or Augustine for their heavy minds filled thoughts. Aquinas was known as the dumb “ox” and oxen are pretty heavy.


And after they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own garments on him, and they led him out to crucify him. And they forced one Simon a Cyrenian who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and of Rufus, to take up his cross. And they bring him into the place called Golgotha, which being interpreted is, The place of Calvary. And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh; but he took it not. And crucifying him, they divided his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take. And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.


Thanks for following along! I’ll be posting a new Catholic-themed Inktober drawing every day. Check back tomorrow for the next prompt!
