October has been crazy! I had 2 workshops, one for the NCAEA (North Carolina Art Educators Association) as a presenter and instructor for art teachers, and another for a grant sponsored teaching series to high schoolers. I felt like I did my gourdly duty sharing the fun that is gourds this month! 😁

Happy birthday! 🎈🎈🎈🎂

OC, Victoria Sweet Digital sketch of a monstrous woman in profile, her jaw unhinged and mouth split wide in a horrific, toothy, hungry grin bordering on a snarl, her dark hair billowing past her. One bloodied, clawed hand is lifted as if to lick the blood from her fingers. Her numerous golden horns are decorated with pearls and resemble a halo.

OC-tober #14, "What the mirror shows."

I'll eat the world then eat the spoon.

(Might circle back to finish this as a Halloween piece, we'll see.)

A winged, mummified skeletal sorcerer in tattered robes, ceremonial necklaces and feathers wielding a fiery staff and wreathed in a spectral orange glow.

It's been a long time since I've painted a pet portrait! A lovely memorial piece for a return client.

A trio of photos of a mouse sculpted onto a gourd, held by the artist Cara Bevan, unpainted over a pile of leaves.

Mouse #2 for next year's show, "The Artist." The name will make sense once he's painted. 😉

[Made of 2 gourds, paperclay, and epoxy clay with glass eyes.]

A look at the creation of "The Electric Tower".

Amazing! What size pen and brush are those? Impressively tiny detail work.

Pathfinder shenanigans! My friends paladin Albemarle isn't sure how to handle this boggling critter.

Thank you for letting me goof with the sketch
