Still Here!

Still Here

Hello everyone. No I've not been abducted by aliens, I'm still here. Here being relative. I apologize for my lack of posting but my plate has been full with some ongoing health issues.

Most of you know of my physical limitations due to an auto accident a couple of years ago.

I've slowly adjusted my activities to work with the limitations I've been left with. Well just as one thinks they've got it down the rug is shaken again.

Due to my newest reality I've not been able to create as often as I'd wished so like my physical limitations my output has been limited. But it's still an output! I'm a bit behind on commisions as well but I hope everyone will bear with me as I work out this next stage. Enough of that!

These fellers are my Christmas efforts so far. For some reasons I've been smitten with snowman fever. I always like them as a child. I suppose it had something to do with growing up in Florida.

Never having seen snow till I was 19 in Baltimore during the Blizzard of 81, snowmen were exotic to me as a child. Frosty being my favorite Holiday TV special.

These guys have a ways to go, but hopefully with some help I'll have some ready for this months STJ posting, and some for Ebay, that is unless anyone wants to put dibs on any of them (hint, hint)

The kitties have been enjoying some glorious weather lately, but that seems to end this evening as we expect to go down to the 30's. Were at 54 now which puts me in the mood to put up my tree. With the help of some friends and hot chocolate tonight seems to be the night. Well, now back to those snowmen.

Don't forget the Hootenanny at STJ

Just a note to remind everyone, and a sneak peek at my offerings for the SpookyTimeJingles Hootenanny update tonight! From the sneak peak from the other great Artist at STJ it looks like a banner event.

The bunnies are all decked out for your Easter celebration.

So set your clocks for 11:59 PM so you can get the best choices as things go fast at a first come first serve basis. Good Luck all!

Bunny Update and Shenanigans!

When they began to begat!

Look what the bunnies where up to! As bunnies do, they begat..LOL. I like the new bunnies and can't wait to add the paint. They'll have to wait thought, cause this bunnies gonna be hopping all night in order to have Ma and Pa ready for STJ Hootinany on the 13th.

Meanwhile back in Halloween town I've got a couple more pieces in the works. Two luminarias, a cat, a JOL with hat and a very angry teapot. They-re one of the reasons I've fallen behind on the rabbits. I'll be glad when I can be Halloween-ing round the clock after Easter.

The last note is about some new directions. Well actually this is a new attempt at an old idea. Back when I started, dabbled in doll making but was not happy with the results or process. After working on my regular figures and thinking out a new doll process I'll be making some now and then. Any way here was my first attempt.

And now I gotta get a hoppin!

WIP Update and EHAG Emporium Debut!

WIP Update and EHAG Emporium Debut!

First off, don't forget about tomorrows debut of the EHAG Emporium, January 31st at 9PM . I am proud to be a part of EHAG (Eclectic Halloween Artists Group) a wonderful group of artists. These artists specialize in creating one-of-a-kind Halloween collectibles. EHAG is now opening the doors to the Emporium...a special blog dedicated to showcasing one work of art from participating member. Here's a sneak peek at my offering.

Next is an update of for the Valentine pieces I was working on. I swear I feel like I am working as slow as molasses! There are two candy/gift boxes that I've finished as well. They are also bobbing heads.Hopefully they will be posted tomorrow on eBay under hohohalloween of course. That is if the cold doesn't slow the molasses further.

I think they came out rather nicely if I do say so myself. You've already seen Mr. Heart who is holding flowers and is hiding a ring box behind him.

Of course you all remember the bunnies I started last week.

They now are joined by a little chick.

Well at least that's what I was going for. Actually I think it looks like some kind of killer chicken or "Kung Fu" chicken. Don't know please tell me what you guys think.

Don't forget to check out them out next months offerings at STJ's Holiday Hootenanny.

Well back to work for me.
