We hate Valentine’s Day. But THIS is pretty awesome. Go check out the rest of the pics from our fiends over at Midnight Dreary. Awesome.

FINALLY a complimentary piece for my Sun god. Meet the feminine, Moon goddess.

Glow in the dark skull bobby pins (hell yeah!)

Yep, you read that right. Glow in the dark. Skull. Bobby pins.

I made these a couple of days ago and have worn them the last two days in a row. Absolutely love them. As you can tell by the last picture of my goofy ass wearing them

Want a pair? Buy it on Etsy!

And now for something completely different. Earrings!

Look what I’ve done now. These are fun, quick & dirty skullie sketch cards; silver Sharpie on black 3×5 cards.

It’s really just a clever way to display these. Silver plated skull stud earrings.

I really love these. A lot.

You can get one here if you would like.

LOVE. I have named this handsome devil Vincent, because he reminds me of Vincent Price.

Dia de los Muertos skull – El Capitan

Cootie — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 03:31:43 +0000

I’ve had a weird week… this weekend flew by very, very quickly… this left me with little time, energy or inspiration for painting. But this evening I sat down to finish up the dashing El Capitan. I love the warm terra cotta base & his starry blue eyes. Not to mention the mustache. Ha ha ha!

Horse skulls

Here’s something neat. I’ve known this lovely lady for several years. She is a remarkable artist. I only recently regained contact with her (she found me on Twitter then I found her on Etsy) and found that she makes THESE. How starkly strangely wonderful are they?

If you’re interested, you can purchase them here in her Etsy store.

Everybody loves a little head.

Ever thought of crocheting a skull before? Yeah, me neither. Yet here it is.

Dead Steve

Meet Dead Steve. How OMGCUTE is he?!

AND he is available for purchase from Nekonebthet on Etsy. Don’t you just wanna take him home & cuddle him? I know I do.

Take a look around the shoppe. She has lots of other fun crochet crafts available as well.

We will resume our regularly scheduled posting shortly. I have been lazy the last couple of nights & haven’t painted anything new. I have inspiration for my next skullie though! He shall be called El Capitan and he shall have the most dashing mustache you’ve ever seen on a skull!
