A spooky Halloween Voodoo design for you to enjoy.

The cover of my new book Voodoo Dolls in Magick and Ritual has a nifty Voodoodle that combines the ritual symbol for Papa Legba with a Voodoo doll. It's kind of an inside thing between him and I, this Voodoo doll thing...

In any event, my book is now available as a Paperback book and instant download!

Digg Voodoo

So, I have been wanting to make a Digg Voodoo doll for awhile now, and here it is. For those who are unfamiliar with the color significance of Voodoo, the red means you love it, and the black means avoid it at all costs. Feel free to grab it as a button and use it on your blog or site, but you can't charge for it in any fashion. Enjoy!

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 Power Talisman

After a serious bout with the flu that precluded me from doodling, I am back with a vengeance. Here is the latest voodoodle. It is a power talisman for Ogun.

Voodoo Doll Baby

Here's the latest Voodoodle in the Voodoo-Doll-a-Day series. She's a Voodoo doll baby, one of several who will be part of my Voodoo doll tree I am working on.

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.
