Day #23 Coffin – Juicy


Day #23: Double challenge #Drawlloweentober   

Prompts:
> MabsDrawlloweenClub: Coffin
> Inktober: Juicy

This painting is inspired by the prompt Coffin and try to make it less creepy and more juicy! I decided to paint again my big eyes style Ms. Wednesday Addams, but this time she is doing meditation peacefully sit on a “Coffin” just to stay in the Halloween spirit… Namaste 🕉  btw I don’t think I ever seen the Addams family doing meditation especially Wednesday so my interpretation it is something different! 😉

Day #4: Mothman Underwater

Double challenge #Drawlloweentober  Day#4:  “Mothman Underwater”

Prompts:
> MabsDrawlloweenClub: Mothman
> Inktober: Underwater

Today painting wasn’t a easy one and surely a subject that I don’t usually paint, but that’s why these challenges are so interesting for your creativity because they push you to create out of your comfort zone! I never heard before about the Folklore of the “Mothman” I had to search about this legendary creature, so in end I had to combine the two prompts which seems to go pretty good together in my painting!

Ocean Treasures – #NatureDoodlewash

Original Watercolor ©Carolina Russo -
Original Watercolor ©Carolina Russo –

Today for my #NatureDoodlewash  “hike”  I enjoyed a walk on the beach 😉 it is very hot these days the beach seems to be the place to go.  I am going to share my watercolor of some beautiful ocean treasures “Seashells”.  I love everything that has to do with ocean you already know that by now! Seashells are fascinating to me , they are beautiful and great finds, I collect pieces of seashells and fossil seashells that I find in special places I go, or if they are interesting fragments. I use them for my one of a kind or limited edition jewelry that I create inspired by nature. I like to think that these seashells had a long life under water and that the ocean, wind and sand shaped them year after year. I enjoyed very much to paint these beauty.


Coming Soon Event! “The World Watercolor Month” you can learn all about it here!

Today for my #NatureDoodlewash  “hike”  I went diving underwater 😉  I am going to share my watercolor of a beautiful sea creature a “ Seahorse“.  I love everything that has to do with ocean, sea and water and I enjoyed very much to paint the colorful beauty of this Seahorse.

Seahorse – Original Watercolor ©Carolina Russo

Seahorse is the name given to 54 species of small marine fishes in the genus Hippocampus. “Hippocampus” comes from the Ancient Greek word hippos meaning “horse” and kampos meaning “sea monster”. The word “seahorse” is often written as two separate words, or hyphenated. Having a head and neck suggestive of a horse, seahorses also feature segmented bony armour, an upright posture and a curled prehensile tail.
