This is a picture I entered into an Elftown contest in 2003.

Original size A3. Derwent watercolour pencil. Happy Halloween.

My grandmother saw it a while ago. She said she found it very religiously inspiring, something about finding the path to the light. Pardon? I mean, it's a freakin' pumpkin woman dancing under an evil moon! How is that religiously inspiring? Unless, of course, you worship pumpkins or evil moons.

How nice! Her outfit is wonderful, and I love the whirling wind!

I really like her pose. The pumpkin head's a little freaky. But I really like the expression on the moon's face. Very well put together piece. Keep up the good work.

:-) Jessica ´BadCat´ Kelley replies: "Ah, such delightful feedback! Thank you very much, Elizabeth."

woah! this is almost Tim Burton-esque...what with the pumpkin head and the face on the moon.

this is a fantastic picture!

:-) Jessica ´BadCat´ Kelley replies: "Ah, I worry for a world over-run with Burton-esque, um, -ness. Cough. Glad you like it, though. 2"

While i am an immense fan of Burton you should know that this piece, if you ask me, has a feel all its own. while i can't quite put my finger on it...i have always loved the dark and playful feel of autumn art not only that but a lover the way this medium looks. excellent piece.

:-) Jessica ´BadCat´ Kelley replies: "Thank you, Tempest. Sometime I'll have to try and recapture this 'feel', if it gets me comments like yours. Grin."
