intention was to turn her into a regular " product " - Snarky would not play that .
After 2012s " Fear The Season , I had seriously decided to take the character of Snarky to the next level of commercialism , but in the end decided " that would spoil her " . Fearing that a regular schedule and " 9-5 " might soil the enthusiasm I have for her , I chose to simply let her do as she pleased - which really amounts to ME doing as I please .
I suffered a bout of sciatica recently - had to take a few days off work at Disney to recuperate - and in doing so Snarky was released again ; this time for a Halloween adventure . Despite being a professional artist for well over 30 years , I still have no CLUE as to how the muse of inspiration strikes - but it does and NEVER when you expect it .
I blame it on Katy Perry . God bless her delightful soul .
I do believe Snarky was the cause of my sciatica - she was wedged into my lower back and it took a few days of bed rest for her to claw her way out .
As I mentioned in the initial Snarky Blawg , suredly there is MORE to
Snarky the Elf than just Christmas . . . and she hopes to prove that in her latest and newest tale themed along the Halloween motif . Certainly she makes a darned fine WITCH . . . and accompanied by her companions Buttercup , Hunnypie , Rhubarb the PEENGIN ; and not to forget Princess Vivian . . . the Halloween edition of Snarky The Elf promises to be another looney tune .
I am about two weeks into production , creating some new sets - redecorating the old one and have plotted out a story that , while perhaps not " original " will certainly have some new " snarky " twists . In the end , hopefully it will be fun - a bit of silliness to take some of the angst out of your day to day lives .
