Spoops: The Little Spirits of Halloween is adorable and gets you excited for the spooky season

Who changes the leaves? Summons the autumn winds? Wakes ghosts and spirits to haunt houses and chill the air? Why, Spoops, of course!

Ghosts are friends with fairies, don’t you think?

This is a digital study of an idea I want to draw with pen and ink! I’ve started working on a book illustration project about fairies and their lore, so I’ve been looking at a LOT of fairy art. Fairies on the brain now.

Halloween is coming and “Fang & Friends” are waiting for you in my Etsy shop!

Available as a giclée art print.

Also available as a ceramic mug, t-shirt, and greeting card in the Gift Ideas and Mugs section.

Find it here:
theartofrobhusberg.etsy.com/listing/7724...

This pictures Fang, a snaggletoothed tuxedo cat at home with a couple of loyal, yet creepy friends (or should I say ‘fiends’?). A claw-toothed raven is perched on Fang’s wingbacked chair whilst a fanged rat is stationed on the carpet. A dead plant resides in a vase to the right. A full moon shines through the gothic window. This particular moon however, is a giant grinning pumpkin! It’s all quite eerie, yet in a sinisterly gleeful way, suitable for year-round viewing.

Drawn in dip pen & ink with a symphony of blue & orange watercolour washes.

15oz ceramic mug
