2nd witch hat





Here is the 2nd of my three witch hats. These are so much fun! I need more hats. I should open up a witch hat shop, I could do this everyday! This is too much fun it must be illegal, right. I have to say thank you to all who write me too, you guys are the best. Sometimes, it brings tears to my eyes because some of you are fantastic artists in your own right. Just the icing on he cake to hear from you all. Big hug, Tammy

Wonderful witch hat




I just finished a huge witch hat (18" high) and thought I would share. I bought three of these big hats ages ago and just got time to do one. It was so much fun but took forever to paint all the pumpkins! Update...I sold this hat but I will be doing two others, so if this is something you might want one of , please let me know. Just drop me an email and I will make sure I let you know. Thanks for looking,
Tammy

I've been away for awhile but I have managed to do a few new things and I am hoping to have a new witch hat finished in a few days. I lost my list of people who bought from me in the past when my computer hard-drive crashed so if you haven't been getting my email newsletter in the past month please contact me an I will make sure you are added. The witch on a pig was my listing for Spookytimejingles anniversary this month and the other was a big gourd witch that was sold. Okay, I'm going back to finish my big witch hat. Thanks for stopping by and sharing my art. Tammy

New Spider witch and I'm back!



Wow, I can't believe all the things that have happened to me in the last few weeks. I feel like I am living in one of the sappy western songs. First I got sick with the flu and that really laid me up and then my Mom needs another hip surgery (her 3rd) and then my computer crashed...it just has gone on and on. But a generous friend has lent me her laptop and I have been working. Luckily, I had a few orders to fill and sold some things direct. I wanted to share my newest sculpt. She is new and different for me and she makes me laugh like most of my art does. Anyway, I hope I am back in the saddle again for good!

New Crow Sculpture




I just had to show my crow sculpture I just finished. I think he is sold so he won't be listed anywhere. I sculpted him on the same base as my cat witch that sold on Spookytimejingles. This was so much fun. I even sculpted and laid each feather down his back for a realistic effect. I was especially happy with his hat and the crow silhouettes. Very labor intensive so I probably won't do another for awhile but would like to do another sometime maybe an ornament. Thanks for sharing him with me. Tammy

Meow! Spookytimejingles update!



It's that time of the month when the spookytimejingles website will update with all the wonderful new art. This little kitty witch will be my offering for the month. This is an open mouth cat with beautiful golden eyes. I still am having fun carving wooden birds. I especially like the silken black threads wrapped around his neck. Makes me want to pet him and scratch his neck and ears. Spookytime's new items can be viewed on the 13th at midnight Eastern time. My page can be acessed by the link on the right.

Mother Earth Witch Make do







I am so excited to show this new witch. I have been studying new sculpting techniques and painting ideas and I think this is one of the best faces I have ever produced. This is also the first time I have used JOL's on a witch hat and I think they turned out great. I have never put a witch on a stand before so I am anxious to see how she is received. She is listed on eBay right now if you want to see more pictures. I would love to hear what everyone thinks. Thanks for stopping by.

Still making witches!!


I still haven't run out of ideas for witches yet so here is a few more. They both sold to people on my newsletter right away. It seems I can't do enough of them. Fine by me! This is my first attempt at a pumpkin witch and I got some fun new trims and some tiny glass bubbles I put on my purple witch. The harlequin pattern is striking but horribly time consuming. I just can't do simple. Anyway, thank you for sharing with me and I have to tell you how much I enjoy hearing from my fellow artists. It means so much!

Two kitties




Made these two fun cats over the weekend. The harlequin cat sold right away before I listed but the other one just listed on eBay. If you mention you saw it on my blog, I will take $10.oo off the "buy it now" price. Please notice I added a bow tie to the one in the top hat. These were very labor intensive but so worth it. Hope everyone had a fun long holiday weekend! Oh, the second cat sold too. I am sure there will be more kitties down the road though.
