Halloween and fall

Click image to enlarge!

My witch has two jobs. One on Good friday at Easter when she rides her broomstick and cat to Blåkulla to dance in the moonlight.

Second jobb is as witch for Halloween in October. That time she is a bit nasty I think.

This time she carries a TAG for Tag Tuesday

She also represents TADs promt Broomstick.

I had this witch for maybe 45 years and she still rides her broomstick.

😍

Halloween outfit!

Spooky watching

Click image to enlarge!

Ladies!

This Lady is created from images of big plactic bags for garbage.

And a little lightwork in Photoshop

Spooky!

Photomanipulation and Halloween stickers

Some spooky stuff for Rains TAD

This is the scallop I created for my daughters first wedding in Honolulu where I could not attend.

Using her photo.

A digital version of the new wedding.

Two weeks ago, they renewed their vows with a Swedish wedding. It is now valid. It seems that the wedding in Honolulu is not legal in Sweden. But now they are legally married in both countries.

Unfortunately I could not attend this time either because my sister is still ill and I did not want to risk giving them any illness. But I've seen the video.

Halloween

Halloween!

Digital photowork with my own photos combined with adding stickers.

Normally I don´t celebrate Halloween. To me it is a reminder of our Easter witch (Påskkärring). Halloween and Easter witch is probably the same tradition from the start. We do it in Easter. Others do it in oct-nov. And Swedish kids celebreate both. 💀

Alien s play around

Click image to enlarge!

Alien worlds!

My alien world is mostly a waterworld. For TAD his week.

As my sister is still sick I have spet this week visiting doctors, hospitals and pharmacy. And shopping for her. But I still wanted to have some fun with art. When we buy food these days they are often placed in this kind of black Food tray´s. I cleaned one just to have some fun with it. As I already had the blue color on my "workstation" I took that and a little of green and yellow. You see it below.

The light!

Painted with acrylic on the tray 14x22 cm

Before I painted The light! I arranged some fake nails on the tray.

I bet you know what it is! So I will not write it down.

🦓 😁

Last of fall! Maple Seeds, Wings or Noses a´la Pinocchio.

We have a saying that goes aprox: Dear child has many names.

As a child we used to open the seed side and then put it on our noses.

Digitally altered photo!

Take care everyone!

Surrealism

Wild horses in Yellowstone

Photomanipulation for TAD:s Surrealism theme

Adventure!

Hard to explain this one. I leave it to your fantasy.

Sea bottom!

Painted a scallop on a A4 paper. So it is stuck together. Added some things I have laying around to create a more interesting ocean view. And took a shot

Sweden are lifingmost of the Corona restrictions yesterday. People are happy to go dancing and watching football. So, now we only have to wait and see if it works out well or if it creates more disasters. Still, take care everyone.
