There is just not enough time for me to get as much done as I would like, but I am slowly plowing through my list of custom paintings. SO WHY NOT START MORE PROJECTS. It’s not like we have Halloween costumes to make or anything.
I have a bunch of shrink plastic left over from my last failed foray into jewelry-making, so why not waste more time! I’ve been wanting to turn some of my recent people-paintings into pendants and whatever, so I gave it a trial run last night.
Sophia Petrillo ring and my majorly chipped nails.
These are pretty rough prototypes just to see how they hold up. So far so good, so now I’ll make some fancier ones, maybe! Probably not! I don’t do “fancy” very well.
In the next segment of this late night Tuesday blog post, let’s look at some recent paintings I made, because this is kind of a business and I should probably try to promote it every once in awhile. Sorry to be so annoying & in yo’ face.
Kellin Quinn from Sleeping With Sirens. Frank-n-Furter for Chris, a super belated birthday gift because I’m a great friend.
But at least my wedding gift for her and Monica was on time.
And then this one was for my work friend Jill’s sister, who is a master biker. I like when I get to paint happy scenery.
I just finished another custom order tonight but it’s for a birthday/Xmas gift so I can’t post it yet. And today someone bought my Lizzie Borden and Log Lady paintings! I can go to more haunted houses now!
I have another day off on Friday and I really need to make new serial killer holiday cards so FINGERS CROSSED that I can get motivated. I could never be a fake artist full time. I know you’ve been wishing on falling stars for a Ted Bundy Hanukkah card.
As always, if you’re looking for an original gift or something to cover a hole in the wall, please visit my Etsy shop: somnambulant.
OMG KELLIN. That looks just like him as a cartoon! I love it!
Got my eye on some paintings in your shop. Fingers crossed they’re still there next month!
Thank you! It was fun to paint him ;)
That fucking clown. Seriously, I hate it so much.
I love your art though. That Sophia ring is so perfect.
Thanks.
