My Halloween fun

Halloween is my favorite time of the year because it is one of the few times of the year my tastes are much more acceptable.  

I found this great "Nevermore" banner at Target.  I made a raven out of cardboard (& painted).  

It really pops on my living room accent wall.  The pattern is below.

I work next to a Dollar Tree which can be a blessing and a curse.  I found this Virgin Mary that was both cheap and poorly painted so I don't feel bad painting over it... 

I like how my skeletal VM turned out.

Aurora Keeps Me Going

A little watercolor sketch of my little monster.  It fills a journal and my heart.

February Art Snacks

Markers make an artist smile!  Aurora's obsession with food bright this piece to life.  I'm not sure if it is because of it being so easily available to me but I really love work on and with cardboard. 

January Art Snack

I am new to subscription boxes but Art Snack is pretty fun.  Getting these random art supplies monthly is like Christmas.

Aurora has been providing a little inspiration lately.

           

Art Sighting

I have seen these babyfaces on the news but didn't look up where they are in hopes of finding them in the wild.

Happily, I found these two on my daily commute.

It took a while for the traffic to be just right for this picture.  

I love these and want to do something similar someday.  I wonder what medium is used and how they are attached?   They remind me of the Toynbee tiles.

Cardboard Sunflowers

We have been in Colorado for two years now. Something that makes me think of home is sunflowers. It is a favorite symbol and I guess what I am trying to say is I miss Kansas... but not enough to go back.

Run You Clever Boy and Tag

Being the Whovian I am I was inspired to make a little something. Souffle take time, patience and in my experience some cooking genius.
