Soft in the Head

"Another Remarkable Day in MY Neighborhood"

EHAG Emporium

Summer is upon us and what this means to me is it is time to kick it into high gear for "Ghoultide Gathering" Oct 4th... My workroom is starting to have that look of the "day after a frat party" chaos!  Stuff is thrown everywhere and even the ceiling isn't safe for the need to find places to hang body parts and other odds and ends needed in my creative process....I bet if I had an open house to peer into my workroom I might even be able to charge admission, it is literally that crazy in here!  In the midst of it all I still need to keep active in my "Marketplaces", finish magazine deadlines and keep up with my much "over-due" orders. 

Tonight the Ehag Emporium opens its doors to some new and creative Halloween Art.  This is quite an inspiring group of artists and anyone who loves Halloween, like I do, shouldn't miss a visit to this site....Tonight I will be introducing my first "pumpkinhead" of the season "Miss Peek-A-Boo".  

Pumpkinheads in all various sizes

and shapes are one of my first loves of Halloween art and I have quite a collection.  They are also one of my favorite characters to create!  Maybe it comes from that obsession I had as a kid for the "Tales of Sleepy Hollow"...  This year I am trying out a whole new look with my wool pumpkin characters and I'm just loving the look that is evolving. 
 
I also want to remind everyone of my new "Giveaway" that I have going on to celebrate 20 years of "Soft in the Head"....Hard to believe it has been that long.  This Ol' girl has traveled down some pretty bumpy roads to get here.... some with amazing results and some with heartache but all in all lessons were learned and I

emerged a much wiser and happier person/artist from it all.  A HUGE thank you to all of you that have made my trip down this path such an incredible journey!  Don't forget to enter my giveaway either here or on Facebook.....(scroll  down for post on Giveaway)....
