" You try. You fail. You try. You fail. But the only true failure is when you stop trying." ~~👻~~ I've been dealing with some health stuff this last week, so I tried something new to get my mind off of it. I took a lot of inspiration from dollightful and friends to turn this dollar store doll and ornament into Madame Leota from The Haunted Mansion! (Movie version) It was a lot of fun to make, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #dollcustom #dollcustomization #thehauntedmansion #madameleota https://www.instagram.com/p/CHduhzbDwLX/?igshid=tpgz9sfej7hl

Today's painting is going to be late because of work and Halloween fun! So here's a spooky sketch while I hand out treats. Remember to stay safe and have fun tonight 🎃🎃🎃 #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #sketch #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBm7trjQir/?igshid=i3z3j73iwcc2

And the last decade dress for me is #1950s. This has been a lot of fun and a great learning experience for me! Thanks for all the love this month and I'll see you for one last spooky image tomorrow 💙🎃 #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming https://www.instagram.com/p/CG-8_3pj62E/?igshid=gxn3meav6mcx

With a world war going on, clothing from the #1940s was affected quite a lot. But I went with a womans uniform this time instead. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming https://www.instagram.com/p/CG5h8exD9ve/?igshid=1l8gsmw857dgo

"As you can see, the devil does indeed wear Prada." I've been watching #Lucifer some days while I paint and I'm loving it@ #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #lucifermorningstar https://www.instagram.com/p/CG3A-pFjrGP/?igshid=15msrx2yd2e7m

This #1930s dress was a fun pop of color, though I'm not sure about how the pokadot's added to the look #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming #dress https://www.instagram.com/p/CG0dydCDWyl/?igshid=mkorseg63dca

#1920 and I couldn't help but think back to the beginning of the year and all the 20s themed parties.. simultaneously seems so far away and not that long ago. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming https://www.instagram.com/p/CGvm7mEjXov/?igshid=1v0ezx4ntpyeo

My last minute halloween costume may be closer to a #disneybound but it still works as Kiki right? The challenge was to use only things I already own, so here's what I've got on hand. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #Kiki #studioghibli #kikisdeliveryservice #Jiji https://www.instagram.com/p/CGsho59D8pl/?igshid=155wuoep9xbs2

This is my #superhero prompt for today, Wonder Woman! I once read an amazing article that showed how accurate her armor is to historical armor, referencing photos and details between the two and it made me respect it so much more! #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #wonderwoman #dcuniverse https://www.instagram.com/p/CGnkEISjPaA/?igshid=c8cuz4k72xgd

I'm going into new territory now with these outfits. Because while I've done heaps of research into clothing from the 1800s, I've done very little into the 1900s... it seems much more diverse and complicated from what I'm used to, but I will continue on to the best of my ability! A prominent feature for the 1900/ Edwardian era is the S curve in the figure, shown here. This is also the first dress that wasnt referenced from an existing clothing item, but from a painting. #1900 #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming #edwardianfashion https://www.instagram.com/p/CGkz-oyDxnO/?igshid=11b01qn9wztya

Kids costumes can be so versatile, going from cute to scary to clever. I couldn't pass up the little girl as a crayon, it seemed so fitting! #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #halloween #costume #halloweencostume https://www.instagram.com/p/CGiNPRFjNEq/?igshid=1etcr8vwafxmv

#1890 dress, and I'm loving the colors on this. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming https://www.instagram.com/p/CGfzMZ4DuXt/?igshid=vyirju17ryfq

This #17thcentury dress is more a case of being done with it so I can move on, rather than being happy with the outcome. I fought with the paper more than usual and the texture of it can actually be seen in the photo. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming https://www.instagram.com/p/CGdeWuGDJrL/?igshid=738xordxsjgt

#1880 I really like when I can find a photo of a dress at this angle so you can get a glimpse of both the front and bustle. #damsamiam #instaart #instaartist #painting #watercolor #inktober #artistsoninstagram #1880sfashion #drawlloween #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming https://www.instagram.com/p/CGaoFVnD78G/?igshid=1nc4jpno6oku8
