September is here and it’s time to get spooky 👻
Here’s a new piece that I’m (quite creatively) gonna go ahead and title ‘HAUNTED’
Combining all of my favorite things in one- skulls, ghosts, creepy old houses and even some vines!
First slide is the tentative print version, which I edited digitally using my trusty sketchbook app. Added a whole lotta extra grain and a black background. Second slide is a close up of those sweet little ghosties in the windows. Subsequent slides are the original unedited drawing, process pics and the concept sketch.
This piece came from thinking a lot on the ways in which we often haunt ourselves with all sorts of things- grief, regrets, old habits, doubts, fears, etc. etc.
The human experience can feel a lot like having a rickety old haunted house for a brain, at least for me.
I’ve been working to clear out some of those not-so-friendly ghosts from my house-brain and am feeling happier & healthier than I have in a long time 🖤
I’m so excited for the next few months. I can’t wait for cozy sweaters, crunchy leaves, pumpkin everything and making lots of new creepy things to share with you all!
What are you looking forward to the most this spooky season?
