We don’t celebrate Halloween in Greece – apart from some themed kiddy parties – but how could I resist painting these awesome pumpkins?
I love fall colors, all those burnished oranges and reds.
In strong light the colors are almost fluorescent. Or almost fake!
And an irrelevant photo. But I do love ducks!
And a swan.
As for Halloween, the commercial aspect is hard to avoid. I even chanced upon a Simpsons spoof version of Edgar Allan Poe’s poem The Raven on television.
‘…and the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain…’
Was a spookier verse ever written?
