I was thinking of Rapunzel when I started this, but she just does not seem like a Rapunzel, so I gave her a pair of scissors and I’m calling it Hair Cut~~
The tones in her face remind me a bit of Dave Cooper’s work which I love. Not familiar with Dave Cooper? here is a link, though it was hard to find a gallery with several works showing:
Also found this animated cartoon with his images which is a delightfully twisted, contorted, bubbly ride. The bouncy character animation is just as I might imagine and the raunchy romp in jello at the end is fitting!
Lots to do today.

On a nicer note, from last years design I am selling this print and cards on etsy: The Girl Who Swallowed a Tree
Also offering up this piece which is a Money Tree hat:
And in memory of my beloved Balthazar, the pug nosed reindeer is back:

Thursday, November 1st, 2012Not a single solitary soul approached our house last night, except for those already there of course!

I put tea light candles into the hollow heads of my Day of the dead dolls, they were wonderfully spooky!
