Have you ever seen simple garden vegetables that could evoke such a sense of pathos? These little cuties are the work of Nobu Happy Spooky:

Halfway to Halloween Countdown: My Pet Ghost

Posted in halloween, products, undead, you can't handle the cute with tags , , , on April 27, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

For super cheesy Halloween fare, I must admit Hallmark’s My Pet Ghost series is pretty neat.

My favorite is Maxwell McSpooky…the MAD SCIENTIST.

The bottle appears empty, until you push a button (not me in this video):

Can’t a Brother catch a break? Let us take ~paws~ from recent posts and share with you centuries old kitteh prints. This 15th Century manuscript shows that a brief instance of feline mischief could be enjoyed and commiserated centuries later. Picture the hapless monk turning from his labours for just a moment, only to find this when he resumed his ministrations:

Today I’ll keep rolling with some more dolls, then switch things up for the weekend. Denise Bledsoe does some adorable creatures. When Dana showed these to me I was struck by the character and whim that comes across in her work.  I was able to narrow down the following selections to share:

Artist Joe Vollan can place innocence into eerie setting and make skeletons into noble, gentle, fun characters. His dark yet quirky art is something wonderful. I hope you will agree.

Halloween Countdown: Matthew Reid

Posted in art, halloween, undead, you can't handle the cute with tags , , , on October 26, 2012 by shewalkssoftly

If you click on on this website, the title in the tab up top reads “The boring art of Matthew Reid”…a nice ironic touch since the work is undeniably fun and full of life (and death).

Kind of adorable…kind of quirky…a little bit deadly, with a splash of unpredictable whimsy…

A brand new one just making its debut:

The non-Halloween stuff is great as well. I cannot help but conjure stories in my imagination about these characters, so filled with twists and turns…

Halloween Countdown: Cardboard Cat Costumes

I’m not one for dressing animals up, Halloween or otherwise…but after seeing this, my darling Rowsdower and Ripley better beware if I can get my hands on a Sharpie and some boxes.
