Some witchy art

Does anyone else feel like Blogger is way more complicated than before? Maybe it's because I'm not used to it yet, but I find myself almost dreading making a new post....it's too glitchy! and from some comments I've been receiving, I'm not the only one having trouble!

Above is my latest witch, sorry about the not so great photo. I am still without a printer/scanner, and trying to get a good photograph is impossible! It's so overcast here, that by the time I get home, the sun is gone over the neighboring houses, so I can't get an accurate image  Now that I started painting again, the last thing I want to do is stress over photographs. 

It feels good to get some new art done. Once again my sketchbook is filling with ideas, and any day now, I will start with the Christmas art. It's coming alot faster than you think! Once Halloween is over, the holiday season swings into full speed- at least here in Canada, and every year I am left unprepared. It would be nice to be ahead for once in my life, lol! I really envy those of you who are so organized,  manage to get everything done on time, and manage to take gorgeous photos too! 

Have you ever looked through the magazine called Artful Blogging? pure eye candy. I just want a fraction of the prettiness found inside. My blog is so plain, no frills, no fancy lettering, but with so little time,  you have to pick and choose where you spend it. Right now I need to focus on getting better at my art, and as much as I wish I could take gorgeous photos of my art to put on Etsy, it just isn't going to happen.  It sucks, but that's life.  Besides, I went on an art supply shopping spree on Etsy and at Micheals, and  got myself a whole lot of fun stuff to play with!  Papers and stickers and tapes, oh my!

thanks for reading, and have fun wherever you are
xoxo

I don't think your blog is plain! I love it! And, I love your witch! I haven't been painting really anything for Christmas yet. Just taking it day by day ;o) Big Hugs and keep on creating ;o)

I saw this witchy girl on Etsy....she made me click to see what else you had in store...heehee!

I love that you are painting again! I think the admin stuff takes so much time away from what is truly important....art!

I think I'm done with Halloween, I hate to say....it is still so hot here, it hasn't felt much like Autumn.....and Christmas is right around the corner.

We're still on for mermaid ATC's?

What a beautiful witch. I love witches!
I will check out the website!
Yes... I don't like the new blogger, I was using the old blogger until they took it away.

Your image is gorgeous! I like the old Blogger better as well and am trying to adjust to this newer one.
