July- JTHM doll, a ramble, and a sneak peek?

 Heeey...

I'm just never going to be consistent with online visibility. 🤷 But I do still exist! And I am making art, despite not having anything new listed anywhere. No worries, just being insular.

I did kind of get stuck in a creative rut for awhile...well, it was more like burnt out with drawing. I have been messing around with doll customizing a lot more, which I have always been drawn to (no pun!) as it lets me flex my mixed media skills in a cohesive way. So, there are dolls to share:

Showing my age here a little bit with this guy- Johnny the Homicidal Maniac Monster High doll! 

He was a STRUGGLE- I had originally used a Deuce head, but in the end decided that it just was too angular and looked like the Joker from the Batman comics, so I ended up using an EAH Raven head- never personally liked the roundness of those doll's faces, but it was perfect for this project. I did have to cut the neck hole bigger- fitting for the character, I suppose.


Nny comes with two knives and a double-sided Dough Boys statuette- he is currently available for purchase on eBay: https://ebay.us/m/vl13Pt


Here are two custom dolls I made for a client earlier this year:

Frankenhooker Monster High Custom Art Doll
Frankenhooker 

Juliette Starling Monster High Custom Art Doll

Juliette Starling

These two will have their own pages in my Doll Gallery when I eventually get around to updating it- there are a few dolls that I don't know if I have even written blogs about. 

I dont know when I will have new ACEOs. I may or may not list a bunch of prints. I am sucking at website upkeep as usual, and I am irritated with etsy to the point of not listing anything there. So...I got some stuff to figure out, rearrange, and simplify. 
At any rate- xoxoxo!

 OMFG I do NOT want to be on this dang computer. but OMFG I really want to share this new doll, and all the updates I have for the month! So, without further adieu, may I introduce Wendi: Wendi is a Skelita Calaveras custom, and a counterpart to the Flora doll.  This was my very first Skelita make-over, and I was nervous, I always get nervous when I make the creepy dolls. I just want them to be NOT PRETTY but NOT UGLY and also resemble the look I have in my head. I think I did okay with her, I really like how her eyes turned out- a slight bit off, wanted to give her a dead stare, as she is...a dead thing, you know?   She is up for auction on eBay HERE , with lots more pictures and a little write up.  If she does not find a new home from eBay, I will be putting her up in my freshly re-opened etsy shop: zombietoes.etsy.com I am also hoping to get some other doll related items listed on etsy in the soonish future, as it is a bit empty over there at the moment....

 Oopsies, it's been two years... I've been making art that whole time, but keeping up with all the online stuff is just not my forte. I don't even mess with social media anymore- a decision that was made for my mental health, and you know what? RECOMMEND. Anyhow, a quick update- I have hashed out a schedule for updating my "online presence" on a regular basis- once a month I will update my art galleries , my blog, and my web shop with art, prints, news, dolls, whatever I have going on.  Hopefully, I will not fall off again and disappear into the void. Here are some custom dolls I've made (and since sold) in the past two years: These ladies, along with others, will be added to my doll gallery eventually. I am *really* behind with the updates, y'all. I do apologize.  Oh, what else...I have been considering re-opening my etsy shop, I am hesitant, because is it necessary? Another thing to keep tabs on...I'm not sure yet. In the case that I do decide to, ...

Monster High Lagoona Lalaloopsy Doll, ACEO Sunday sneak peek, ++ ramblings

 Uggh, hiii So...currently existing in a haze of frustration of myself. Well, I'd say it's more like a mist. Not too thick, just...annoying. Yes, I am annoyed at being continuously frustrated with myself. Does that make any sense? Who knows. SO, I have FINISHED some dolls! Emily the Strange is complete and pretty much ready to find a new home- I need to draft a listing for her, though I suspect I may run into a weird copyright issue trying to list her on eBay. I've already had issues trying to get her Certificate of Authenticity made up. (ramble happening) Normally, I order out for the doll COAs, as I wanted a nice, smooth, perfect looking card. However, the place I order from is refusing to print up her COA as it goes against their copyright policies...Fine, I will print one up myself, fiiine, ughhh.   Oh, the printer is out of ink. Right-o, I have another cartridge ready to go. Oh, well, it doesn't recognize the black cartridge. Cool, coolcoolcool. So, I am currently ...
