Here are my daily drawings for #mystinkytober25 and #frightfall25
Shadow Creeper for @chrispiascik.bsky.social
Ghost for @retrosupply.bsky.social
I don't know if anyone else is posting these here.

Illustration of a small purple man casting a shadow, which changes into a monster about to eat him. The words "Shadow Creeper" are written within the monster.

Illustration of a ghost and a skull with a lot of negative space.

I'm participating in a couple of drawing challenges over on one of the other sites. I kind of wish it was here. Anyway here are some skulls for @chrispiascik.bsky.social #mystinkytober25 and @retrosupply.bsky.social #frightfall25
For Fright Fall, I'm planning to put all the prompts into one image.

Had a terrible dream last night: Sesame Street was being raided by ICE. All the small muppets were able to hid, but I was Big Bird and too big to find a hiding space. I just sat down and started reading a book while I waited for them to take me away.

I just learned that they have turned Oesterheld’s Eternaut into a live action series. I cannot overstate how much I loved the comic. We just finished the first episode and I am very excited to continue watching. #eternaut #oesterheld #fantagraphics

The circle of my life: find a record I want at a thrift store. Check the prices on Discogs to see if it is worth it. Find a better copy for less there and end up buying neither.

When my daughter was young she would get super excited for her birthday ahead of time asking “guess what’s next week?” When I learned she shared a birthday with @levarburton.bsky.social I began answering “It’s Geordi LaForge Day!”
