Mask, Oct 19th, #artober #scbwi
Took a couple days off, skipped two prompts for rest and protest. For today’s “mask,” I thought of my dogs. My daughter and I like to call the markings on their faces masks, each wearing the same mask but in different colors.

Scarecrow, Oct 16th, #artober #scbwi
Feeling under the weather today, so I created this piece in bed, and had to forgo my real paints. I love crows so I’ve made a murder of them unaffected, unafraid, even lying on the scarecrow, which is meant to scare them away.

Rustle, Oct 13th, #artober #scbwi
For Monday’s prompt, a portrait of the culprit that drives my dog, Bessie, crazy as she stands patiently waiting by a tree for the squirrels that rustle the leaves and tease her endlessly.

Twist, Oct 10th, #artober #scbwi
In the spirit of the season I had this idea of a twisted tree. This isn’t very big, so as I worked on this it turned more into a concept, and I think it could be cool much bigger with some interesting detail.

It’s Halloween all month in Halloweentown. Decor is up and my collection of bones and gravestones is getting more substantial. Some nights I get creeped out coming home. 😆

Carve, Oct 8th, #artober #scbwi
Initially I just wanted a pumpkin patch of grumpy jack-o-lanterns with one happy one, but it became more reminiscent of an album cover. There’s a good band name somewhere here.

Birthmark, Oct 4th #artober #scbwi
Birthmarks do not often define the dog. Penny has a heart on her shoulder, but she’s far from affectionate especially with her little sister, Bessie, who has since given up trying to cuddle with her.

The colors of Spring are popping & I’m sharing Thur’s #kidlitartpostcard piece. I started this a bit ago with acryla gouache, then put it away bc I didn't like the colors. With fresh eyes, I edited the colors digitally and added blk line for that little xtra. The world is xtra. Keep making art.

Nothing says Spring like the tufted titmouse. Actually that’s not really true. I just like to giggle at the name while enjoying applying pen and ink to paper, and also I think they’re really cute birds. These are exploratory sketches for a teeny project I’ve been working on.

This card is going to the art teacher at our local MS, where she ask me to talk about what it means to be an artist. I gave 6 lectures (over 500 students). The 👌 feedback from teachers and librarians was a 🎁, bc respect. If I gave them some respite in their day then that is good enough for me! #art
