Like I’ve done many Octobers before, I’m teaming up with Julie Matthews over at Paper Doll School for a fun little joint art project between our two sites: Paper Thin Personas (mine) and Paper Doll School (hers). We’re each making different paper dolls that play around with the same spooky themes: Poison Bottles, Vampire Aristocrat, Moth Queen, Bats, Fortune Teller, Pumpkins, and Ghosts. It’s our shared paper doll adventure for the season! That said, this October has been kind of a whirlwind (lots of panicked emails back and forth), so we’ll see if we actually manage to pull it off this year. Fingers crossed! I know we’re both excited, but also life gets rough.

So with that context, Happy Halloween everyone! Meet Bianca Boo!

Not only do I have a Halloween printable paper doll, I have a poem for my Halloween printable paper doll.

“Bianca Boo, the paper doll of night,
Wears frightful frocks that cause delight.
With ghostly grace she’ll charm your view
Beware her style… it may haunt you too!

As candle’s flicker and cauldron’s brew,
Bianca Boo stirs something new.
A dash of venom, a drop of spite—
She brews her poison dark as night.”

I don’t usually write rhyming verse, so I am quite proud of those two efforts. There may be more. I have a few more already written, but I don’t have one written for every gown yet.

This whole halloween project was a stretch for me, creatively. I don’t often work as a digital painter, and patterns aren’t usually my thing, but I really wanted to push myself for this one. Bianca Boo was inspired by Betty Boop, so I aimed for something that felt vintage, a little Art Deco, and delightfully quirky. Her outfits are all meant to be costumes with a mix of vintage silhouettes and a dash of Lolita flair.

Her first dress around the theme “Poison Bottle” and I decided to use that as a silhouette on the skirt and then made a plague doctor style mask. One of the things I’ve been working on is coloring both the glass in the mask and the brass accents with some colors. I decided to work with patterns as well, something that I have never been very comfortable with, mostly because I get frustrated with the challenge of making patterns directional when working with digital brushes, but that’s another issue all together.

And that’s Bianca Boo! I hope she brings a little extra fun to your Halloween. Whether you’re dressing up, passing out candy, or just curling up with something pumpkin-flavored, I hope your night is full of treats and creativity. Check back in soon, as there are more Bianca Boo frocks to enjoy.
