Welcome to
SITAR is about ANYTHING art. Your art, someone else's art, writing, photography,
the art of cooking, the art of sewing and textiles. Sharing historical
art, street art, a story about art. Do you have a question or need help
with art? Write a blog post and link it up here. We will all try to help
with it. My only rule is that if someone asks for critique it must be done with generosity and consideration. This is a place of learning, encouragement and inspiration.
I had a different post started for SITAR. However, as I got into the artist's life. I didn't like him very much.
Since it's late in the day, what you get is a few pieces of mine.
I hear people say,
"It's time to get ready for Halloween."
Of course I laugh because my house is ALWAYS Halloween ready.
Last year I was unable to create anything new but this year I am in full (scary art) force.
Here are a few items in my art room
and most of you will remember some of these pieces.
First I opened two totes that are filled with sculls, skeletons, and bones.
And this next box contains real bones.
Animal, not human. LOL Mr. M. will get it down for me.
This shelf is up high but here is a better photo of the G
This is "Bone-ita" Ya know, pretty in Spanish "Bonita" LOL Yes, my friends have names. 😁
Bone-ita is looking over these lovelies. I was going to sell these but I have some sort of attachment to them.
I made all of the teeth with a nylon material.
It’s weird, it’s wild, and not for everyone. However, I wouldn't change my monster art for anything. The process of creating this art is alluring, spellbinding, and the finished pieces very satisfying.
I enjoy each piece I make but there are always favorites and for different reasons.
This one is because I sat down and made guts for him. He tells a story of being in the coffin. His name is Redgie. Yeah, poor Redgie lost his limbs in a war.
This piece truly is my all time fave. his name is, "Echo"
I don't think there is anything I don't like about him. I have had people wanting to buy him but I won't let him go.
I have many more monster art pieces in my house, including drawings, paintings, leather and clay sculptures. For now I think this is enough.
Are you getting ready for Halloween? Or are you like me and are always ready?
I will be joining Gillena

You certainly have a good selection of 'things' there Nicole.
It would be a lot of work to dust them off every day. Can't wait to see your Halloween deco!!
...I feel that Halloween is in the air! Be well Nicole.
Echo reminds me of the face of the mannikin that I saw yesterday — a version of the scream I guess they are.
Love your scary pieces Nicole!
I love all your art. I couldn't live with it all year, but I do get into Halloween. I need to dig my 2 boxes of Halloween supplies out of the attic, but my shoulder is slowing me down this year. So I could why you didn't get much accomplished last year. but thanks for sharing. What a fun post, and I really enjoyed seeing these. hugs-Erika
I'm not ready for Halloween, but boy! You sure are! Seriously spooky and a ltte scary too! Well done. Re-sharing the art camp 2 post that was part of FFO. Happy week!
Oh, I like this collection. Creepy and artistic is a nice combo.
Boa tarde minha querida amiga Nicole. O trabalho de Vik Muniz é muito interessante. As máscaras são assustadoras, mas seu trabalho ficou bem interessante. Uma excelente tarde de domingo, bom início de semana para você e seus familiares nos Estados Unidos e um grande abraço do seu amigo carioca.
Wow, quite the collection you have. I like Echo too, he's the best.
I do enjoy Halloween. It's the best scary time of the year.
I would love to hang masks like that in my own mancave lol
I am quite sure, Nicole, that Halloween has a whole level of significance for you, far more than for the “average” person!
You gsve us some really gruesome art yodsy. Nicole
Thanjs for linking to SundaySmiles
Much love
I completely forgot to link, so I am very late visiting. I used to go all out and decorate the entire house with Halloween pieces. Now I put out a couple of pumpkins and a witch or two. And I hand out Halloween decorated pencils instead of candy to tricksters. Happy SITAR and Sunday Smiles.
