Fireworks in the graveyard: Liberty
I guess it has been a while since I've posted! Still making dolls, and the following dolls are variations on the Simple Doll pattern in the previous post. Somehow I got on to a creepy-cute kick, and these started jumping off my hooks. There is no separate pattern for them.
For inspiration, I found a great Etsy seller of digital artwork: Locker61; purchased her zombie/voodoo/creepy digital art, and used it for inspiration. Here is an example:

These make up fast. If you have a cache of buttons, mix them up for the eyes. To color the faces, I used colored pencils dipped in water. You really cannot go wrong.
I sketched the backgrounds using a free online application: Sketchbook. I am no artist, but it was just plain fun to draw again, like I did as a kid. I use this on an Android tablet computer.
Here are a few more of my creepy friends:

Stone
Flora and Stone got their names from an Aldi's Merlot...
