Halloween ReminiscencesI did not have time this year to create a new artwork especially for Halloween. Instead I share my memories of Halloweens past. Unlike Ray Bradbury's musings on the subject I will not get sentimental, but it will get a little (corn) syrupy.

As a Baby Boomer I experienced the most memorable years of my childhood in the 1960's. In fact, Boomers of my vintage represent the last generation in America to have had the opportunity to experience the final vestiges of a "traditional" homespun Halloween of the kind that Bradbury experienced in rural Illinois.

I am just old enough to have worn homemade costumes and collected my haul in brown paper bag

More of my Disney Princess fanart can be seen in my DA "Disney" gallery gallery:


Jasmine may be a princess, but she still a participant in the Islamic culture into which she was born just as any other woman.

All are considered equal before Allah.

This artcard started as a very simple blue line sketchcard. I added no detail to the color version. I justed started to play with the light. As a result I had to slap my hand to get me to stop elaborating on such a small scale.

That is a really, really cool idea for a picture! You add so much back story to the character by doing this!

I am surprised (dismayed) that few artists on DA use "traditional" methods.

I know. I'm guilty of that. I do a bit of both but more digital nowadays I'm afraid. It's mainly because I do watercolours and the equipment is so expensive
