Some Halloween ornaments heading to Eastend Gallery in Marshall, MI for the Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween exhibit opening September 26! These are prints from my watercolors with digital and hand embellishments added, and little frames that I hand finished to match.

A few of these ornaments came home from a gallery show and are in my shop now! Ornaments for a Halloween tree OR a spooky Christmas tree.

And here are “Lunar” and “Solar” in the antique frames that inspired them.
I found these frames in an antique store, and they made me think of reliquaries and over the top religious art, like the jewel covered catacomb saints.
I stabilized the frames and added plexiglass and spacers.

Tired of seeing projects that rely heavily to entirely on ART for their unique appeal or primary marketing angle...but don't credit the actual artists.

Every race. It’s basically been every race.
Governors. Mayors. Long-held GOP dog-catchers. School boards. Water boards. Flipped a dungeon master in a rural Iowa D&D club. State senators. State reps. A janitor in Duluth. State justices. Three GOP Uber drivers.
Just everything.

Beautiful “Gratitude” ceramic tile by @kestfineart.com I got at IX. I picked it out of her series because of the crescent moon and the beautiful green in the background, but I was glad to discover the sigil’s intention after I’d chosen it.
