 A gown that I bought on clearance a while back...the 'chest area' had some padding that ummm...was higher than..uhhh...MY chest area So I actually used the cards to disguise that and make this gown WEARABLE for me! I made a card collar and used this Dollar Tree light up crown as he basis of a proper Queen of Hearts crown  I did my makeup and attempted to do my hair, added some jewelry and this was my final look. The small Halloween gathering we were going to attend was canceled due to a Covid scare, so we just visited about friends that we normally hang out with for an outdoor gathering...just basically long enough for everyone to enjoy each others costumes. Mine was a hit!

I decided to revisit last year's October theme, which was based on my 2013 October theme. Last year I even made up an 'art challenge' for it...I think I was the only one that did it, but here it is;  October 2019 Art Challenge Prompts  ...I applied those prompts to create fashion illustrations...  ...so kinda went like this- my 2013 piece inspired the 2019 piece, which inspired the 2020 cutout version...and my friend Raquel's sewing skills inspire me daily...love that vegan bag so much!  In years past I have participated in INKober. I didn't this year, but I for a little while I was playing around with dropping ink in water as a background for my pieces. I posted short videos on Instagram...not for the whole month, though.  Here is an example of my 'ink fabric'. I played around with different backgrounds, finally settling on the orange because, well- HALLOWEEN.  Here is the final series!  ...no crowds, constant cleaning, masks...Epcot and Animal Kingdom were safe AND fun!  What is it like to teach elementary school during a pandemic? Well, I check through my remote students' work during class changes and while I monitor the in-person students...share masked laughs with my colleague Amber...and basically, just wash my hands constantly, stay socially distanced and try to match my masks to my outfits...Rona ain't stopping my fashion game!  ...still getting to know our new town. Downtown reminds us the most of south Florida, so we seem to go there the most.  ...fun trip to the mountains to see the fall leaves...  ..well, we went to see the leaves but mainly to see our friend, Frank :) |
