Sitting in the still-too-hot autumn heat. Only a week until I have to get on an airplane. (I'm EXTREMELY phobic... Hate flying...) Halloween is very soon. SPOOKY SEASON! So...what do I do? I make artz...

"Boop Rainbow" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] From infra-red to ultra-violet, IT sees all. (Mork wore rainbow suspenders before they were cool... Enlightened!) ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Sinners' Arch" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, paint pen, and brush pen on paper with digital embellishments and color.] They gather on certain nights of the year around the Sinners' Arch, and nobody knows what their strange chanting and bizarre rituals are meant to accomplish... Or, I should say, nobody has lived to TELL what the rituals are for... ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
P.S. - Just so folks don't think I'm bigoted against belief systems that involve ritual or nighttime gathering, this piece is a work of fiction based on the mood found in the old Lovecraft / Weird Tales types of stories... (Personally, I'm totally cool with ritual folk...)

"Evidence" by Felicity Echo Hanson (Toddler Terror) & Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments, drawing, and color removal.] I cut cardboard boxes up to use as canvasses for drawings and paintings. Been doing that for more than a decade. Lately, when I grab a pile of cut-up cardboard and a few pens to do some drawing, my granddaughter, Felicity, joins me. This piece was primarily drawn by her. (I bleached it out, digitally, and added the eyeball... Cuz I add eyeballs to things.) To me, this one is pretty good! ---Felicity Echo Hanson (TT) & Richard F. Yates (HF)

"Intruder Alert" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen on paper with digital embellishments and color.] I'm not sure what this is. I think there's at least one spaceship in there, and a couple of alien life forms, but it might also be some kind of inter-dimensional, dream realm. Who knows??? (Not me!) ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
