Treats only please.

Happy Halloween from Melissa Belanger Art!!!

I'm giddy that my favorite holiday 

has finally arrived!

A huge thank you to all of my Halloween collectors 

& I just know that your homes

are looking Halloween-y Fab right now. 

Cheers to "achingly cute" costumes 

& tricks that turn into treats. 

Have a fabulous Halloween y'all!!!

I thought that I was done with Halloween for 2015,

but then this little 12" Halloween mascot happened.

Here's what she looked like earlier this week.

Fingers crossed that she will be included

in a magazine for Halloween 2016 :)

Ghoultide 2015

a HUGE THANKS to all 

for a Super Fun Ghoultide Gathering!!!

& for cheerfully withstanding rain & cold 

to visit my booth

--I am still absolutely giddy that so many of you 

took home a piece of my artwork! 

The camaraderie of collectors & artists 

at this event 

has left me beaming & inspired!!!

Why not combine the two holidays?!

Depending where you live, 

Oktoberfest is happening right now, 

somewhere around you.

This year's Ghoultide Gathering paintings 

combine the adult fun of Oktoberfest 

with the nostalgic charm of Halloween.

The best beers and Halloween decorations 

have traditionally been made in Germany; 

so, why not?!

Here are some photos of what happens artistically 

when holidays combine.

(AKA, candy & beer cheer/grown-up Halloween)

Ghoultide Grouping

You guessed it-

these 23" Halloween figures 

will be heading to Ghoultide Gathering soon!

(warning: the skellie is a bit of a bad boy)

Naughty Cat Painting

A long painting after a lovely long weekend!

(if you look closely at the right side of the pumpkin, 

you can see a paw print left by a naughty cat)
