Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

So I'm well aware that I am almost a week behind in posting my Christmas doodle, but I still wanted to post this before the year ended!  I actually did this weeks ago during some down time at work, but just got around to scanning it and posting it today.  I've been super distracted and unmotivated lately due to reasons I will explain in a future post, but for now here is my last post of 2014!  I had a pretty descent year, and looking forward to a very exciting 2015!  More to come!

Bah Humbug

I apologize for not posting, but I've been extremely unmotivated lately.  For those of you who know me, know that I despise this time of year.  In fact, I fucking hate it.  There are many reasons why I hate this time of year...a mess of Christmas decorations everywhere, god awful Christmas music playing in every store, horrible traffic, a depleted bank account, and a pile of useless christmas gifts that I will most likely either throw away or donate to charity.  So to celebrate my hatred of this holiday, here is my little holiday doodle...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  

Happy Birthday Lily!

Here are some characters I drew in my sketch book.

I ended up turning these little animal doods into a birthday card for my little cousin Lily.  

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!  I hope everyone is eating tons of candy!  Here is my little Halloween doodle for you to enjoy! 

Halloween Week!

Happy Halloween week!  I know I haven't been posting a ton on here, but I can guarantee you that I've been slowly filling up my sketch book!  If you've been following me on instagram, you will find that I sometimes post art on there that I don't post on my blog.  Anyways, as I wrote in my previous post, I have been super inspired by Tim Burton's 'Nightmare Before Christmas', and decided to make a little doodle of Jack.  I'm all ready for Halloween!  Now I'm just hoping I don't eat the entire bag of Reese's Peanut Butter cups that I bought for our trick-or-treaters!

Painted Pumpkins!

Fall is probably my favorite season.  I love the weather, I love the fashion, I love Halloween, and I love painting pumpkins!  I only painted one this year, as opposed to the two I painted last year, but this year I got a little bigger of a pumpkin and painted both sides.  If you couldn't tell, they are inspired by Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas.  I have always been a huge fan of Tim Burton's work, and couldn't think of a better time of year to be inspired by him.  

And if you can see in the last picture above, I also have a hand painted mail box.  I painted this years ago, but I don't think I ever showcased it on this blog.  I had found an old, white, flower covered mail box, and not wanting to pass up an opportunity to be creative, I did what any girl would have done...I painted skulls on it!  I've had this mail box on my house for about 4-5 years now, so it might look a little dirty in the close up below, but I still wanted to post it.
