I've become fascinated with the near-word letter strings we need to enter to leave comments. Also called "Captcha," they are meant to weed out non-personal attempts to post. Recently I got the letters "gogreloo" and was enchanted. I began a drawing for the word which is embedded within. It took on its own character and became THE Gogreloo. It even needed some color which came from my collage stash.
I am quite certain it will be out tonight observing, or creating, Halloween mischief. It and I wish you all a spooky, but safe and happy Halloween. The Gogreloo will also be visiting ofrendas and cemeteries for El Día de los Muertos, another culture's part of this seasonal observance, in the next two days. The color is approximately the color of flowers needed to decorate the family cemetery plot.
This is a neat one, Jean! I like the background information, too. The kids see all kinds of things - birds, monkey, old lady - they are facinated :)
ReplyDeleteOh, this is wonderfully spooky! I love it! Love your color additions too! Fantastic drawing... well now I guess it would be a mixed media with the addition of your collage Stash! Fabulous! Happy Halloween!
