If you keep on sinnin', I'll just stick another pin in, you're my hoodoo voodoo doll...

Since the Boyfriend and I agreed that we wanted a tiki theme for our future apartment (with which there is some doubt, debate, trouble and tribulation, all of which I must cowboy up and overcome), I've begun painting things to hang once we have walls of our very own. I really love painting. It's relaxing just as a process, mixing colors, applying it to the canvas, and it also gives me a whole new freedom with color and experimentation.

Under the cut are the two paintings I've done so far. If you enjoy them enough, I can set up prints on my online shop. Hope you dig!





This is the first one I did. The Boyfriend wants to put it up in his cubicle at his job. The muted tones are deliberate; I wanted a slightly vintage feel to the quirky theme.



I enjoy the darker feel of this one and the small splash of voodoo. As my sister knows, tentacles are really satisfying to draw. My only gripe is that the sealant I used made my lines smudge in a few places.
