Scarecrow Sketch

Here is a drawing I made a while ago, but I want to ink and color it in time for Halloween!   I was hoping it would be part of a Halloween series of drawings.  I have a vampire and a phantom in mind too...just not enough time to get them all done for this season!!  Ah well, maybe next year!?!

(Series)ously


Is it just me or do people like things in series?  There's tv, movie, and book series...artwork, too.  I am definitely a fan of series, whether its keeping a good thing going or acting as a way to provide more detail in a story.  That's why I'd like to do more series of drawings, especially ones that you piece together, almost like a mini-comic...a short story in a series of drawings. 












I've got a couple of ideas...Japanese Fairy Tales, Halloween-inspired characters, nature spirits...  That's the type of thing I'll be working on for the next couple of months I think.  Maybe then I'll get inspired to start an actual comic! The pictures I posted here I did while in Japan inspired by autumn.  I was thinking they would be a post card series.  I wanted each picture to stand on its own, but build upon each other.  That way, if you sent the cards to the same person, they would discover the larger picture upon receiving the second card!
