I drew this skull free hand then colored it in with tattered angels glam and Tombow markers. I cut it out and attached it to the top of a wood box I painted with Tattered Angels glimmer mist- black gold and candy apple red.
In the eyes are what I like to see- one of my favorite animals- bats! I have 2 small browns and one bigbrown that frequent my yard in the summer. I love watching them zip around at night! Rainbows are a favorite like most too bc I love color! Even in my gothis industrial phase in my twenties- my wardrobe was comprised of black (the norm) but still infused with color. The teeth are big in this pic bc I like my teeth- I remembered some of the little kids in the 2-6 yr old ward at an emergency facility I used to work at commenting on my teeth. Very funny bc ppl pay a lot of $ now to get their teeth like mine. lol I also like the look of spider webs- we have a ton here. I leave them up bc they help control the pest population and the look of them are perfect for our big old house. They add drama and charm.

I love this and that it represents the multi complex you. fantastic "self portrait"
Loved reading your blog post, I don't suppose you're also a Libra ? The bow on the skull was the finishing touch for me - too cute.
Thanks Gals! I'm actually a cancer. Deep thinker and too compassionate at times but I demonstrate a hard exterior always. xo
