Beartober '26
5 prompts. 5 days.
A little autumn art.
Join the Beartober challenge on SketchyCraft and keep your month of artwork in one place.
Follow the prompts, add your drawings to your calendar, see your progress take shape, and finish October with something you can look back on.

What is Beartober?
Beartober is an October art challenge created by artist Codi Bear featuring a small collection of seasonal prompts throughout the month. After several years without a Beartober prompt list, Codi Bear brought the challenge back in 2026 for artists who want to enjoy some cozy autumn art without committing to a full daily challenge.
This year's list has five prompts, spread throughout October.
Beartober is made for busy artists.
You don't need to create something every day. Simply create an artwork for a prompt on its scheduled date, share it with the Beartober community, and enjoy making some autumn-inspired art.
Beartober isn't about keeping up with 31 daily prompts.
It's about having some fun with art this fall.
