Art Deco Hats
Description: Terry the Ghoul is a little bit confused but means well. Well, maybe he meant "make war not art"... that's not right... "make art not war", yeah that's it! Haha, this design is inspired by the current month, October, or known to artists as Inktober. It's a wonderful time of the year dedicated to art, creativity and often creepy and spooky things related to Halloween. Terry loves to be creative and often paints portraits in blood, but he's kinda shy to show them to the world. Naturally, he's wearing the inverted bonetagram shirt and is being his cheerful self!

A gorgeous Bohemian woman eyes closed, amidst art nouveau and bohemian elements and flowers. Out of the ordinary fashion art piece that is second in a series of many. Copyright Tina Lavoie.
