While it started out with ink, it has gone on to take different forms and more recently the digital route. Mumbai art enthusiasts trace their journey through art, technique and mediums

- The uniqueness about Inktober is that every year there are new prompts for the challenge
- Over the years, people have evolved from using ink to watercolours and digital art
Lavanya Venkateswaran religiously started following Inktober in 2018 after she learned about the art challenge from her friends, and came across the artworks of several artists who she was following on social media at the time.
