Small watercolor painting of a round brown robin bird on a background of teal green and brown. Another painting is half-shown of a green plant hopper outlined in red on a greenish-yellow background.

Digital painting of a dark brown cartoon bat hanging upside down on a string of lights shaped like jack-o-lanterns. The bad is itself wearing a costume that looks like a jack-o-lantern.
