We Have Our Eyes on YOU!

Our fabtastic sponsor this month is Seth Apter of whom you can read and shop and learn all at his blog The Altered Page! And we have him as our sponsor for two months so two chances to win awesomeness!   My offering today is almost a New Year's Resolution because the skellie with Seth's die in glitter paper around it is telling me that I do Got this :)  Something I always need a reminder of!

The skellie canvas was another free lesson of the Art Sherpa with Seth's round stamp with random numbers on it Alpha Centauri Cling Rubber Stamp stamped on the roses with black ink and around the canvas.  The sentiment is a mini stencil "You Got This"  with rough modeling paste painted over with some purple and white washed over it.  Love love the circle "Drip Drop Die Set"  with the drips that fit perfect around the skellie's eye!

Make sure you check out Seth's blog it has all the info you will need on it!  And get those entries into the frog so you can have a chance to win something wonderful from Seth!  So jump right HERE and enter for January!

Red Against the World

CT Nan today with a mixed emotions canvas.  It is the holiday season and to some it is bringing extreme joy and for many others it can be causing pain and turmoil.  So using my Grumbacher acrylic paints and Transparentizer along with the Art Sherpa's guidance on Youtube, I painted a canvas showing Red Riding Hood as she looks into the dark woods with a strong wind blowing against her back pushing her along toward a destiny that she may dread but does not back down from.

 

Maybe Krampus is waiting around the bend instead of the wolf?  Maybe a reoccurring nightmare that plaques her?  But she chooses to face it in her heels (my kind of gal!) so I think she has the guts to defeat whatever the enemy might be!

Still lots and lots of time to play this month!  Another winner will be chosen for the Grumbacher supplies so grab your paper and markers or paint and get messy and inky whatever it takes to get an entry into the frog!  Be on the lookout for a close friend of his to make an appearance in about a week!  That is a friendly shout out or warning...even we don't know which one it is!

Merry Creepmas!

You Looking at Me?

Well, CT Nan saying hi and introducing a couple of wary "friends" who don't quiet seem to trust each other not one single bit!  Grumbacher is our fantastic sponsor this month and also next month and I used their awesome water mixable oil paints called Max.  I used a 4 x 4 homemade canvas made for me by my dad which made me smile.  The Art Sherpa, Cinnamon Cooney, on Youtube did this type of painting with acrylics and it was so fab I decided to try with the oils.  Check her out and subscribe; it is a fun and weirdly wonderful channel!

And yes my spider has 3 eyes and was supposed to have more (they do in real life I think?) but I ran out of room.  They are eyeing each other closely to see who blinks first but I think that they will become great pals by the end of the day!

Plenty of time to get your entries in to the Frog and then we can run over to your blog and pop in for a visit to leave you some love!  Remember, Grumbacher paints are up for the winner of November and December and they are sooo much fun to play with!

See ya soon if you get busy right now!
