After sleeping on it and having no bad dreams I begin to wonder if it might be a "Poppet Pretending to be a Zombie" because that would be a prank to pull on your brainy friends - like telling ghost stories at camp.
I could see them being really really quiet sneaking up behind the brains and waiting for the brains to notice instead of saying "Boo". I bet brains look funny when they jump.
Then all the little laughing poppets would pop out of the grass and laugh. But then I wonder what the brains would do to punk the poppets. . . . Maybe invite them to start a Parliament?

So THAT'S why my hand turned orange when I spilled soda on it yesterday! I was wondering about that... I'll have to try vinegar, milk, maybe a few others to see what kind of a range I have.
But seriously, I think you've got next Halloween's poppet right there. Maybe for the purchaser's safety, they should be required to also purchase a Lisa Brain at the same time (glow-in-the-dark would be the most appropriate).
Lisa said: David: You're on! We can always collaborate. Animated zombie poppets for halloween.
Sounds like it might be fun.... I'm thinking VERY animated, by the way (you'll see...)
The ZomPoppet might look good with a light underlying wash of the white/blue glow-in-the-dark paint on the forehead, cheeks and hands, with perhaps a tiny dot of the green GITD paint in the center of the eyes. Add a bit of phosphorescent decay authenticity.

creepy
guardianalien: thank you! I think...
Poor Brains!
I echo guardianalien -
the first thought that crossed my mind was "Now that's just plain creepy...!"
Love it. The Brain's expression is priceless.
That is AWESOMELY disturbing.
I do like the bony fingers of the poppet who could be a zombie. The whole picture has that slightly twisted/off centre feel to it.
Hahaha oh my goodness gracious me.
This is really freaking scary. It's creeping me out. I have to navigate away from here now.

aww! ..
wait that isn't the proper response? :D
very cool drawing!!
Would not want to meet that in a dark alley! :)
Drinne: Yes. And poor cows, poor sheep, poor pigs...
DavidK: I'm so happy you like it. You're definitely one of my most dependable litmus tests! (which is better than being a guinea pig)
MadGastronomer: Knowing what I know of your tastes, that is a great compliment. I humbly thank you.
shu-shu-sleeps: Yay! I was looking for that. glad you see it. The whole painting is a little dizzying.
mordicai: you crack me up
danguy: thanks for stopping by then! (now she knows what scares you)
drinne: sweetie, if that makes you feel better, you hang onto that.
lindsey: whispers,"I see cute too."
thank you.
tera: I agree. Dark alleys are smelly, then you step on something.
Lisa, I think the answer for me is "Both" just like always. : )
We always pretend to be things that are also real and scary. Sometimes to try to fool the real ones.
What do Zombie Brains eat though?

WV is 'immic': when I pretend to be myself.
Scary!

spacedlaw: and funny? just a little, teeny bit?
David: I have a long brutal summer to travel before Halloween. Thank you for another carrot to keep me moving forward.
