Happy December and Happy Holidays, everyone! β€ It’s been a hot minute since I’ve done a real art update around here so I figured I’d share some of the pieces I’ve been posting over on myΒ Instagram over the past couple months. π It seems like I have dry spells where I don’t do much more than sketches/scribbles and then I hit my stride and put out multiple pieces right in a row. I’d really like to be more steady and consistent with my art output in 2021 but we’ll discuss that further when I do my New Year’s Resolutions post soon! π
These pieces were from back in October when I started (but failed to finish) the Corpsetober Art Challenge. It was so much fun, but October was such a whirlwind of a month that the challenge really got away from me pretty quickly in. I’m not upset about it though. With the stress of 2020 always looming I’ve spent much of this year being less critical of myself and more focused on mental health. β€
I think part of the reason I enjoyed this art challenge so much was because it called for me to lean heavy into my interest in all things spooky, and that’s always a treat. π What was not as fun, however, was dealing with my dying, busted ass brush pens and other markers. *SOBS* The silver lining of that, though, would be that it gives me a gentle push to try other mediums in the near future. I’ve been having fun with brush pens for the past 2 years or so and they’ve had a good run. Now I’m ready to tinker around with more tools of the trade. I’ll go more into that when I do that New Year’s Resolutions post I previously mentioned.
Since this post features mostly horror/spooky themed art, my next art update I do will feature some of the fantasy art I’ve been doing more recently. Gorgons, flying purple rats, merfolk, and dryads, oh my! π
Do you have any creative projects you’re currently working on before the end of the year? If so, I’d love to hear about them! β€
Lovely spooky art my friend, big fan of the original Creepshow movie, so loved the first piece, my favourite though has to be the blue haired girl in the graveyard, awesome stuff! π

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! ^_^
Creepshow is such a good one. Always a treat to watch. I’m really glad you liked the graveyard girl so much. She was a lot of fun to draw. π

Spoopy art is best art. I LOVE that Maleficent.
I was hoping to finish my audio recording project before year end, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. I’m just going to keep pushing forward with it as well as my worldbuilding for the WIP.

I envy your audio recording capabilities because I absolutely hate hearing my own voice in recordings. lol I always sound like I'm ten or something.

It took a LONG time for me to like my voice hehe. Granted I switch up how I sound otherwise you’d think I was a valley girl with a serious case of vocal fry LOL.
