Good gravy, I am busy.  Although, it seems like everyone is.  Work work work, driving, driving, life.
But, I did take a couple hours off from the madness to sit with my friends and watch scary movies this weekend.  And if you're going to sit around and watch scary movies, you should do it with a Meatface.

MEATFACE 2012 LIVES!!

Sorry, I can't get enough Meatface.  I got this idea a few years ago from Super Punch and have been making at least one a year every Halloween since.  Delicious and Disturbing.  He's a conversation stopper. 

Anywho.
I'm still getting my scans of the mermaid fish-ladies put together, but when they're ready I'll post 'em.
In the meantime here's another teeth-teaser

It's certainly toothy and halloweeny around here.  More soon, internet!

And the other mermaid

After some brief life-delays, this lady is done.  She gets scanned tonight and then I'll post proper pictures tomorrow.

Work work work.
Back to work and then puttering at OhNo!Doom tonight.  Stop by.  Bring me a beer.
xoxo

Hey Internet!  I been workin' too much to blog.  Boo.  My brain is a bit fried, but I'm getting a lot done.  Sleep is rare and full of Dr. Who nightmares. 

 

Things in the works include this lady, who is getting teeth tonight

 

And then she'll be all done and ready to scan. 

And then she and her long-necked friend fly off to New York for the show opening on the 27th. 

And then I will answer some emails and take a nap.

 

oh hey!

Ok so first off:

Riot Fest was fan-tastic. The bands themselves were amazing - and we saw damn near all of them - but the whole carnival atmosphere and way the thing was put together was perfect. Two days of dancing and whiskey and ferris wheels.

Moving along, it's Autumn, which means I can't help this from happening

New monsters and friends being sewn-up for my Etsy shop. If you've ever wanted one of my critters, next month will be a good time to snatch one up (ETA: the new Tootsie Monster has already been purchased ~ Thanks!)  I'll post more photos of these as they come along - I'm taking my time with them and they'll be done next month, along with some new Amigurumi. I've been sewing these little monsters in the evenings, in that little bit of time between when I get home from the day job and before I start the night's painting.

And then I'm still working on the fish-ladies

This one is just about done, with the other two close behind. She's 18"x7", watercolor and graphite pencil on paper. I'm working on getting details now, in the hair and wrinkles, which is my favorite thing and makes me wicked happy.
I should have details on the show soon!

september!

1am in the treehouse, scratching out one of the final mermaid paintings, gettin' loopy on sleep-deprivation. It's been a week. Oof.


The mermaids are for "I'll Be Right Back" ~ a horror-themed show curated by Isaac Bidwell, which will open October 27th in Baldwinsville, NY. And of course I'll have all the details and fun info on that a little later.

That's all for this week, kids - me and my 2-day passes to Riot Fest are signin' off! Happy weekend! xo
