<br />
Only six more months till Halloween! Unbelievable. Speaking of unbelievable, I actually finished a new piece of art. I've been drawing & crafting lately, but I just can't bring myself to sit in front of a computer for hours on end.<br />
So here it is! My newest piece, the Silver Shamrock trick-or-treaters. This was an idea that I started working on in September of 2013. I wanted to do a sort of retro faux ad for Silver Shamrock. This was my first rough draft:<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's not very good. But, i wanted to get the idea down. Then I did a second rough sketch:</div>

Because I was moving to a new house in October of 2013, I didn't take part in the Halloween Countdown that year. But I decided that I would save it and use it as part of 2014's countdown. Well, that didn't happen. I did start an Illustrator piece, but I wasn't loving it. I had a bunch of other pieces to work on, so I just dropped it.<br />
<br />
Last month I started thinking about it again and I decided to redraw it.<br />

<br />
Look at all my hand gesture drawings at the bottom :P<br />
I felt like this one was better, but I thought I might have one more go at it, which resulted in this:<br />

I thought it would be interesting to include all these drafts. It's eye-opening for me to look at, just because I can see my style shaping and improving.

Back in early 2013, <a href="http://doowackadoodles.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-deadly-terrifying-chimera.html">I did my version of a Chimera</a>, and expressed interest in doing more mythological creatures in my own cute style. The idea went on the back burner until early 2014, when once again, my interest circled back around. I had a couple of sketches, and had intended for them to be paintings that I would sell at <a href="http://www.zapow.com/">ZaPow gallery</a>. The Sphinx was one of my favorites, so I tried to make it my first painting. I painted it once, abandoned the canvas, started painting it a second time on a different canvas and ultimately abandoned it as well. So I did nothing with this sketch for about a year. Then shortly after Christmas, I decided to do a finished Illustrator version. I'm glad that I did, even though I had some struggles getting through that process. Who knows if I'll do anymore. So technically, this is a late December 2014 piece that I'm finally getting around to sharing here. :P</div>

Also, I decided to try out Society6. I uploaded my Bride 2015 art as my first test piece. You can purchase prints, iphone/ipod cases, tote bags & more! Even a shower curtain! I'm still trying to get a feel for how it works & I'll try to pick out a few more things to add. <a href="http://society6.com/belledee">Check it out here.</a></div>

It's 2015!I left the Krampus 2014 banner up a little longer than I had wanted, but I was having trouble coming up with a new banner for the new year. Finally I just picked something and did it. I have a very long post about New Year's Resolutions & all that jazz, but I haven't got it in me to write it up right now.<div>
So for now here is the new banner for this year:</div>

Greetings all! I realized that I haven't tended to my blog since Halloween ended, but I did need a little break. I can hardly believe that November has come & gone, and we are a week into December! I don't know how much I'll be posting before the end of the year, but I did want to get with it and update my page for the holidays. I've been sketching a lot and one of the things I've been working on is a new Krampus design. I decided to work one of those ideas up for my Season's Beatings header for 2014. </div>

Also, a few years ago I did cover art for <a href="http://doowackadoodles.blogspot.com/2010/12/snow-man.html">'Santastic V: Snow, Man'</a>, a holiday themed mash-up compilation. I'm back as the cover illustrator for this year's mix <a href="http://www.christmash.com/">'Santastic No.9: It's a Major Award'</a>. You can download this year's mix as well as 1-8 at <a href="http://christmash.com/">christmash.com</a> . I must confess, I'm pretty proud of that art. It makes me want to do more Christmas special mash-up pieces. Some of you might remember my <a href="http://doowackadoodles.blogspot.com/2013/12/christmas-misfit-crazy-4-cult-7.html">Hermey The Misfits Elf </a>from last year. It was just a fun piece I did for myself, but people seemed to dig it.</div>

And don't forget that <a href="http://creepmas.blogspot.com/">The 13 Days of Creepmas</a> is going on now. One year I will participate, I just need to plan a little better. But head over to the blog and check out the list of this year's participants. </div>

I might have a couple of things to share before we say goodbye to 2014, so remember to check back. Hope you all are having a merry season!</div>

Here's a simple little piece I did of Laurie Strode from the classic film, John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN. I was looking at a lot of stylized illustrations from the late 60's through the 70's, which inspired this piece. The goal was to keep it simple & fun, and I think I achieved that.</div>

Also, here is a final reminder about my exit from the <a href="http://www.zapow.com/">ZaPow Gallery</a>. These are some of my original pieces that are still available there. Although they are not listed for sale through their website, I'm sure if you contact them, they will give you any information you require. And of course, if you happen to be in or around Asheville, NC, just stop on by and check out the gallery. Lots of lovely things to see.</div>

Today's artwork features a vintage-style Halloween couple. The background image is actually a watermark of a place card made by the Dennison Co. in 1929. Since my characters were inspired by <a href="https://archive.org/details/dennisonsbogiebo00denn">Dennison's Bogie Books</a>, I thought it would be a fun design element to actually include a Dennison image. The image that I used came from the <a href="http://halloweencollector.com/">HalloweenCollector.com, The Mark B. Lendenbach Halloween Collection</a> site.<br />
Mark is also responsible for putting together this book, which is high on my wish list.<br />

Today I wanted to share a Halloween purchase I made a couple of months ago. This past summer, I started a collection of a specific Halloween item, that will probably be something I share in future Countdowns. Which means that I've been spending a ridiculous amount of time on Etsy & Ebay looking for these things. While searching on Etsy, I came across this paper table cloth:<br />

It was love at first sight. These cats were so ding-darn adorable, I just had to buy it. Also I kept thinking that the art looked an awful lot like that of Pete Hawley. And sure enough:<br />

<br />
I have been familiar with Hawley's art, but hadn't put a name to the art until about 2 years ago. I always loved these images & ultimately it was what made me begin doing research into the artist.<br />

But back to the tablecloth. I tried to get the best scan I could. I had to do it in sections & then paste it together. Also the material is a paper, and has dimples (kind of like a paper towel). But it's still a great Halloween image & I wanted to share it with everyone.Belle Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08227489211414972530noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565552765936394781.post-89884229399313233972014-10-17T10:00:00.000-07:002014-10-17T10:00:03.266-07:00Halloween Ideals 1960<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Believe it or not, I actually started working on some of the Art for this year's countdown back in January of this year. At the beginning of 2014, I went through my sketchbooks & scanned any little doodle that I thought I might be able to make something of. This included my Halloween sketches from last year, which I never had time to do anything with because we were moving into a new house last October. After the countdown each year I always think it would be really awesome if I could have 31 drawings for the entire month of October. Well, I know this will probably never happen, but earlier this year, I thought I'd get a head start anyway. The owl is newer, I drew him about 2 months ago, but the spider & the cat are both from earlier this year. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And for fun I thought I would make a desktop wallpaper with the cat image. You can download it and set it as your desktop too!</div>

An afterthought was that I should have put the skeleton in there. He might make an appearance next Halloween. If you like vintage style decorations like these, I encourage you to check out the official <a href="http://www.vintagebeistle.com/">Vintage Beistle website</a>, where you can buy reproductions of some of their old school Halloween decorations!Belle Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08227489211414972530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5565552765936394781.post-24090603100006466172014-10-08T10:00:00.000-07:002014-10-08T10:00:02.144-07:00Halloween Ideals 1956<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

On Saturday, Oct. 4, ZaPow Gallery held an opening event for it's October/November group show entitled 'SPOOKY'. For this show I wanted to do something Halloween related, but not in the straight forward orange on black way. As part of my Countdown to Halloween back in 2009, I did a piece called <a href="http://doowackadoodles.blogspot.com/2009/10/home-from-collegeville.html">'Home From Collegeville'</a>, which was my tribute to the old plastic mask & smock costumes that use to be available in abundance from discount, dime & drug stores. I really liked the idea & thought it would be fun to do some new ones this year in cut paper. I've been working on designs for these, on and off for about a year. Finally I decided on these four:<br />

And as you can see, only 2 of the 4 made the final cut. The problem was a color issue. Even though I did these Illustrator color comps, the actual paper color usually ends up being slightly different. When I had them all cut out and next to each other, the bottom two looked like they were a matching pair. The top two didn't really look like they went together, or with the ones on the bottom. I think I might have worked out how to fix the color problem, unfortunately, I didn't get it figured out in time for the show.<br />
<br />
One of my favorite bits about these pieces is the backgrounds I made. It's basically a collage of Halloween newspaper ads from the 60s & 70s printed on card stock. Here are three of the background panels I made:<br />

I made an extra two of these & I'm thinking of doing a Halloween Cat & maybe a Jack-o-Lantern. I love these backgrounds! They are so fun!Belle Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08227489211414972530noreply@blogger.com0
