It was bound to happen eventually. I got behind a day. I’ll probably sit that way for a while. Maybe I’ll just skip one eventually. So here is yesterday’s Sinister Shadow.
And here’s the usual speedy video. I hope you guys like them, because I sure do.
We’ve all been there, caught in the rain without an umbrella or even a hat. It feels like the clouds are out to get you. Well, they are.
The #hARToween fun continues! Yeah, this one isn’t scary. But I couldn’t resist.
Little late today. Understandable, since I released two videos over the last two days, and one of them I kinda had to cram into the last minute. Because self-imposed deadlines. Anyway, here is today’s drawing and speedy video.
Today we’re trying that acetone transfer method again, and it works better! Mostly.
Also: zombies.
This was actually yesterday’s prompt, but I read the list wrong. I’m okay with that.
I love this one so much. I goofed up and didn’t film the actual drawing, but you do get to see all the coloring and other stuff.
I used Posca paint pens, mostly pushing ink out and using a brush. I’ve never done that before, and I really liked working with it.
For today’s #hARToween prompt, I used Brusho to make a dynamic background, and drew on a shimmery silver ghost. Here’s a little video:
Happy Countdown! This year I’m doing #hARToween, and the prompt for the first day is PUMPKIN. You may think I’m cheating to use a stamp. Ahh…but see I also drew and made the stamp. Okay, not today, but I figured I’d give myself a little cheat for the first day.
I even made a tiny video:
This week on My Messy Desk, I made a little trinket box from the 6-in-1 mold set by Little Windows. I am not sponsored by them, they just make wonderful stuff. I made the dish, then flipped the mold over to make the lid. It even had a template I could have used to cut the vintage Halloween image to the correct size, but I didn’t use it, because I didn’t notice it until I put the set away.
Of course, I made the whole thing twice, just not on camera. I wasn’t liking the first one anyway, then the image lifted on the lid, so it was a bust. Funny, I thought I was ahead of the game when I got started on Monday. Yeah, not so much.
This mold was a lot of fun, and I suspect it will be showing up again in the future.
It’s that time of year again! That time when I get the urge to buy Halloween creations from wonderful artists. I’ll be getting one or two things a month in the run-up to our favorite holiday.
My first grab is from Raggedy Ruth Creations. She makes doll scenes of all kinds, and when I searched for Halloween items, it was difficult not to glom everything. I settled for my favorite, this spooky ghost in a window. A good kick-off to the season!
