Halloween Canvas.....the Process.......



A few posts ago I talked about the process of creating art. As I mentioned before I enjoy the process more than the finished project. I guess to me, the journey is more interesting than the destination. I just finished this Halloween canvas for a swap with my very talented friend in Canada. Here are a few snaps of the process........


It started with a sketch on the back porch yesterday in the scorching humidity and heat!


Next, I picked a bunch of paper for the piece knowing that the devil had to be red!

I then sketched the face on a piece of "pumpkinseed" (no joke that was the name of the color) and painted the face with acrylics and Twinkling H2Os.I then painted the canvas board blue with acrylics and collaged book text painted over with gesso and a wash of light blue paint, glued on the devil and crow and stamped on the Oct. 31st stamp and ta-da!

I hope Heather likes it!
