Welcome to Night Vale's Old Woman Josie and an Angel

I love, love, love the podcast "Welcome to Night Vale." If you have not listened to it, stop reading this and go listen to every episode. I'll wait.

Awesome, right? Right! For those of you who only pretended to go listen to every episode, "Welcome to Night Vale" is a fictional news radio show from the desert town of Night Vale, where some very wild and creepy things happen on the regular. It's just terrifying and delightful!

Here's my take on the character Old Woman Josie and one of the angels.

This is just my take on the angels, and I won't say too much because I don't want to give anything away, and I can't stress how much you should listen to this great show. When it comes to Old Woman Josie, I just love painting little old ladies. They may be my favorite subject to paint....

Usually I offer prints of my pieces, but this one will not be for sale, out of respect for the great folks who put this podcast on. They sell their own merchandise, and you can buy all of it here! This was just painted for fun, and I may paint a few other favorite characters as well.
