Inspired by other daily drawing challenges on Instagram, such as “Inktober”, Jude Buffum created the #Blocktober2018 challenge to motivate other pixel-style illustrators to draw a different pixelated monster each day for the month of October. Drawing on his own experiences with yoga and meditation, Jude created the Mindful Monsters series, which paired each monster with an appropriate yoga pose, such as a Haunted Scarecrow in Crow Pose or Werewolf in Downward Facing Dog.
