I decided to do a favorite character that I like to draw. I love drawing simple ghosts like these from last week, but for this prompt I decided to do a mummy, which is also fun. This is a more traditional mummy than the ones I usually do, so I played with texture in the background and added the little dog.
Oh No!
October was unseasonably cool. The newsmen claimed it had been the wettest one on record, too. 
Oh yeah, I know it's a bit shameful and over the top, but I always wanted to be a Show Girl!
"The fields lay fallow. The pumpkin harvest had been exceptional this year. People had come and gotten the best pumpkins to take home to carve into Jack O Lanterns. Only the small and lopsided fruits remained. A lone crow landed on an orange gourd and cawed loudly into the still, moonlit night. Nothing answered."

Hi, everyone! It's been a long time, I know, but here's one little watercolor for fall. It's inspired by one of my favorite books, Leaves by David Ezra Stein. And just like this little fellow, I feel a bit sad and worried when the last leaf falls and we head into winter.
I painted this one with cut up sponges (except the vampire). I painted the vampire with brushes to set him apart from the rest of the class. I thought the texture would be fun, and it is, except that the painting was too small (8.5 x 11) or the sponges were too big to make it look the way I wanted it to. Still, it's something I might play around with again in the future, or use brushes to try to re-create the texture.
Eddie was out sick the day Ms. MacDonald's class decided to dress up as farm animals for the class party. Everyone forgot to tell Eddie when he came back.
Ms. MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O
The chicken costume is my favorite.
Here's my painting for The Colors of Fall.

This is another attempt at layering. I like how it turned out, but I think I’ll do a bit more planning next time. Want to see how I got to the finished painting? I posted the process on my blog :)

As a young monster, Frankie loved Halloween best of all & dressing as an angel was his favorite thing to do. He just needed to learn the difference between good and evil (his heart was still young and pure and held no evil thoughts)...I painted Young Frankenstein with his first monster, FrankenTeddy, and his little dog Frankie. I think Young Frankenstein would have worn PJs with his lab coat over them.

In Frankie's younger days he had a thing for cute little Lili.
I love all the wonderful decorations that are displayed this time of year.

Ava knew that making new friends might mean jumping into the game...she's almost ready.
At Rabbit Elementary, the kids love to play with their lunch & entertain each other (sounds like regular kids to me!)
