My 27th drawing for Inktober
The Inktober prompt suggestion for the 27th is Thunder. I think this has been the trickiest of all the prompts so far, how was I going to represent a sound caused by lightning?
Because sound travels slower than light you will see a flash of lightning before you will hear the rumble of the thunder it has created, if it seems almost simultaneous then the lightning strike is very near.

Creating the drawing
To create the shape of the buildings I coated rectangular pieces of board in ink and then printed these on to the paper.
I then used a Indian ink to create the shape of the black cloud, then while that layer was still wet I applied black acrylic ink along the center of the cloud.
