*most* of the new work I brought to WAM yesterday, I’m loving these small plant studies and would love love love to branch out into some customs if anyone were so inclined… 👀 🤞🏻

A few of the witchy/soooky/goblincore tiny painting offerings I will have with me at this Sunday! Come see me!

Round 2 of tiny (they’re all ~6” raw wood frames) botanicals will be at this Sunday! I am also working on a few spooky themed ones for those of you deep in your Halloween feels and looking for something all your friends haven’t already purchased from Michael’s 😅

Loved these over the summer? Bummed the o e you had you eye on sold? I’ll be making a few more of the most popular iterations— zinnias, geraniums, peonies— but most of these are new subjects!

Come say hi this weekend, but if you absolutely MUST have one of these OOAK beauties, they are $35 +shipping and you *MUST* begin your DM with “reserve botanical art” or I 1000% will never ever open it! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The Hoia - Baciu forest in Romania was a clear choice here, with its unexplained twisty trees, it’s dark folklore, and the sheer number of people who have disappeared in these woods. GORGEOUS, but I’m not sure I would risk it.

Would you visit this forest knowing you may well not return? 💀

A bonus “undead” since I started rewatching this show, which may well be my favorite show to ever air (and yes, I’m STILL gutted they cut it short!)

Enter: BILLY BUTCHERSON!
Maybe my favorite benevolent zombie sidekick from

LOVE this one! Even if it took a full year to finish 😅
This drawlloween is brought to us all by Guillermo Del Toro

I learned some things on this one!
1. The original sirens were a Greek myth involving women/bird hybrids who would lure sailors to their deaths.
2. The prettiest native Greek bird is called the Bee Eater
3. Nike and Venus look pretty good as bird hybrids 😆

Okay okay, so this is TECHNICALLY the creature from the Black Lake, not the Black Lagoon; Old Gregg still fits here though!

I could decide between these two so, enjoy both!

Oof! This is hours and hours of work so far and I’m still only maybe done with the under painting? 🤦🏻‍♀️ y’all hold me a countable to coming back to this, it’s a Bowie iteration I’ve been wanting to do for YEARS!

In honor of the goblin king himself, here are also all the other Labyrinth themed pieces I’ve done over the years for your enjoyment

GRIM! — still in progress, and fairly far outside my comfort zone, I really wanted to pair a painting of creepy forest with the candy cabin of Hansel and Gretel. I may have to come back to this 🤔

Day 7: ALIEN

It’s hard for me to pick a single alien, even from a single series among my fandoms —and I did seriously consider sharing my Ziggy Stardust portrait again here!— but Madam Vastra is among the best of the best. Together with her wife Jenny, and a retired Sontaran nurse named Strax (the potato one) Vastra helps solve mysteries and save the world along side several iterations of The Doctor.

This piece is 12x12 oil pastel on card stock and is available as an original, or prints.

day 6:BONES!

For this day I knew for sure I wanted to attempt to paint a Diaphonized specimen because it’s just so cool 🤩

Diaphonization is a chemical process also called “clearing” where a wet specimen is submerged in different chemicals so that the internal structures can be seen through the transparent outer tissue— cool, eh?

day 5: WITCH! … or, more specifically, Angelica Huston’s Grand High Witch.

I can’t really believe this is from a kids movie from my childhood, based on a Roald Dahl book, but hey! The 1900’s were weird 🤪

EEEP! Y’all, I wanted to do this *last* year for the vampire prompt! Bunnicula was one of the first books I can remember being really interested in reading on my own, does anyone else remember reading this book in grade school?

well, I’m not quite finished with the good doctor, but I wanted to share my Frankenstein— sidebar, I am SO disappointed I could t find d the sound clip of Gene Wilder correcting the pronunciation of the name!— enjoy!
