Can you feel it in the air?
Autumn is here. It's finally here ~
Preparing to decorate the house in Halloween colors ~
But first I have to show you the best thing.
Some of you know that I have a print in my shop called
I even have a little tattoo of Fiona on my arm ~
My daughter bought me the most lovely treasure.
My very own Fiona head for my studio wall ~
I am in love with it and was so surprised when she gave it to me.
I keep Fiona hanging where I can see her while I'm working.
Isn't she adorable?
She's very happy to share the space with one of my Orange Sparkler pumpkins!
I have so many beautiful pumpkins this year.
They are especially warty and chock full of punkin pox ~
I am a pumpkin hoarder
They are all around my fireplace, creating a perfect orange glow ~
Halloween decorations are my favorite.
Little strings of bony goodness hanging here ~
and there ~
Bloody candles ~
and a front porch visitor ~
Right in the middle of all the Halloween chaos, I found the most unexpected gift.
A hidden Calla Lily, very much out of season ~
The explosion of Halloween inspired me to paint something
Jack O' Lanterny ~
Work in progress ~
Still working ~
And finally ~
You can find Harvey in my Etsy Shop by clicking Right Here.
Ohhh, and also, I am now offering my Alice themed piece in a print version. This piece was created for the "6 Impossible Things Before Breakfast" show at The Dream Factory in Frankfurt, Germany.
And, last but not least, I have had several people email me, asking to see my finished tattoo.
It is completely done and healed beautifully.
These photos were taken the day after, so the tattoo was still a bit swollen and distorted, but I think you can get the idea.
The tattoo is gorgeous. If you live in the Southern California area and are considering a tattoo, Dan Smith from Captured Tattoo in Tustin is an amazing artist. He used to work at High Voltage in Hollywood, but he's opened his own shop and it is absolutely gorgeous.

So....I've been keeping busy, as usual.
Decorating.
Art.
And a fresh tattoo.
What's going on in your neck of the woods?
