Beware of the house with the red door!

For Illustration Friday’s word, “haunt.”

Beware of the house with the red door… something lurks inside! I see a few pair of eyeballs and that door…that door, the color of BLOOD. The moon shines an ominous glow onto the house, where passer-by’s shutter, feel the hairs rise upon their backs. Beware of the house with the red door!! Something eerie dwells inside!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Crazy Eyeball Pumpkin

Image

so here’s the crazy eyeball pumpkin face I was talking about in the previous post. I completely forgot that we took pictures of it. I am anxious to get my pumpkin carving on! I’m not sure what I’ll do this year (this is Isaac’s pumpkin by the way..mine wasn’t as cool, I did the grim reaper). I think I’ll post another pumpkin tomorrow for the hell of it. Getting excited!!

here’s another one!

it’s a crazy pumpkin face!!

It’s getting close to Halloween and my favorite all time thing to do is carve pumpkins. We do one every year. Last year I got these plastic looking eyeball party favors and got creative and stuck one of the eye balls into one of the pumpkins. It looked pretty freaking cool…and a little spooky too. My recreation of that pumpkin is not as scary. But…I thought he looked kinda …CRRRARAZY!

Courtesy Flush Please

You are probably used to seeing a gnome in a garden or guarding the front porch steps, or just lying somewhere collecting dust in a garage. But… not this gnome. No…this gnome sits on top of the toilet…happily daydreaming in the corner. I never even noticed the damn gnome until the other day when I heard this:

“Courtesy flush please”

 He’s not a tree spirit. He’s not a cutesy piece of kitsch in your garden. Nope. He’s the spirit of the toilet seat. I don’t think this will be the last we’ll hear from the gnome.

refresh!

COFFEE…JOURNAL…refreshing isn’t it? Well, I thought so, that’s why I posted this for Illustration Friday’s word for the week.

Sometimes that’s all I need to start the day off right! A few words of thought and a few sips of enlightenment… I mean, coffee. The elixir of enlightenment. Well, some would say the elixir of irritable bowels and just plain irritable-ness! But I like that moment of “ahhh..” from my first sip.

Refreshing, isn’t it??

Whizzer!

Oh the fun rides you could have if you owned a WHIZZER! But I don’t…and you don’t, unless…you do? 

 

I drew this for Isaac because he’s been wanting to put a motor on a bike, and these are about the coolest things, and are pretty much the idea of what he wants. Well, really he’d love a motorcycle. Something to go with his fiercely independent wild side! Oh wait, he is always fiercely independent. 

I’ve been thinking of a mildly independent little moped myself, because I’m not that fierce and I’m not that wild. Oh what a pair though, I think he’d leave me behind in the dust! Hah.

Tonight’s Menu

I didn’t know what to make for dinner tonight really…I just got home from work and the only thing I bought from the store was a coconut meringue pie. Since I’ve been writing posts about “Cake…it’s what’s for dinner…” I’d like to add another delicious dessert to the main course: PIE!

And I wanted to do something super extra nice for my sweetheart since he’s working about a 13 hour shift today, why not? It would be super extra nice if it were from scratch! Hah! I’m not crafty with pies, I just can’t get a good crust going…I should perfect something like that huh? Eh, I’m still trying to perfect my artsy fartsy craft craftiness! I need to get into gear with that one.

Also, another drawing that just comes from my day to day life, creativity stems from life!
