Voodoodle #12


I can't seem to find the voodoodle I did yesterday, so I had to resort to this one as a backup. It is a graphic of a portion of the wall of Marie Laveau's tomb and my virtual graffiti.

The X practice, as it is often referred to, is considered desecration and thus illegal. Marking on any grave in any of the historic New Orleans cemeteries is subject to legal action. In no way is the X practice encouraged by this artwork.

You can read more about the X practice and the Haunted New Orleans Wish Spell here.

Voodoo Doll Doodles



Inspired by my friend Gretchen Little at HeArt-a-Day.com, I am following suit to create a Voodoo doll a day and to post it here on this blog. As my other site focuses on Voodoo art dolls, I felt I needed a creative outlet for my Voodoo doll doodles, drawings, and other media creations. Here are a few of my creations that led up to the creation of this blog.

This first one is a zombie inspired by our commander in chief:



This next one is a grafitti Voodoo doll drawn on an abstract background inspired by Marie Laveau's grave:



These were created with Paint Shop Pro and a Wacom tablet.
