First of all-
I'm so honored by all the entries so far into my giveaway!
Thank you all, and thanks for spreading the word!
☺
Meanwhile, back on The Cart-
Three new masked chitlins
joined the menagerie this week.
That makes 12 so far this year.
(But who's counting??? Me, apparently.)
I just had to bring them all together to make a little virtual quilt of sorts.
Oh, I'm just getting started! They're just too fun. My favorite part to paint is the face, and these dollies get two.
How can I resist them?
I do need some more Halloweeny archetypes though.
(Not that I couldn't make a hundred more punkinheads, but variety is the spice of life.
And I like my life spicy! OK, Not too spicy.)
I've got a few more designs up my sleeve. Although, lots and lots of my designs never make it past the sketch book. I just tried (rather unsuccessfully I might add) to make a spider face. It was bad. I guess I'll try again. Spiders seem a Halloween necessity, don't you think?
Wouldn't that make a cool poster? I'm going now to bid on the pumpkin one with the cat. Our new kitty, Jasper, is that exact color!

ReplyDeletespider: round face, simple fangy things in the center near where a nose would be, and COMPLEX EYES! remember those from science class? an eyeball filled with other round eyes...then the 8 legs curling out from the head...stunning look, don't you think??
ReplyDeleteAn evening of Halloween delights...even the Hallowwwwing coyotes agree......perfect timing on their part. Love all the chitlins.....especially the devil with his shirt on fire.
