I’m dreaming of a white Christmas...❄️ This is a page I created for my Holiday Cheer Coloring Book and colored in with Prismacolor Premier colored pencils. I 💖 the rich smooth blends that can be achieved with Prismacolors!

I enjoyed drawing this little reindeer for my Holiday Cheer Coloring Book! Can't wait to color it in ~ if you've colored it, I'd love to see how it turned out!

12 years ago I drew my first sugar skull and since then, I've drawn/painted/created 63 sugar skulls in total. 😍 In honor of this year's Day of the Dead, here’s a little 60-second video of all my sugar skull art. ¡Feliz Día de Muertos! 💀🎨💖

Happy Halloween!! 💀🎃👻 I created this artwork for my 2018 Sugar Skulls Calendar  🎨

[thaneeyamcardle]

Five years ago, an editor at @andrewsmcmeel approached me about creating a calendar featuring my sugar skull art. It was such a thrilling opportunity, I said “yes” right away! I'll never forget the moment I spotted that first calendar in a Whole Foods in Kailua, Hawaii, because it was the FIRST time I'd ever seen my art in a store... what an overwhelming rush!! 😃💖 Since then, I've had the good fortune of being asked to create a new sugar skull calendar each year.  My 2018 Sugar Skulls Calendar is now available on Amazon, Book Depository and other sites!  🎨💀
