Poisoned Apples

11x8.5 mixed media on Strathmore art journal done today, total 2 hours for a WetCanvas 2 hour timed event.  I was ready to eat a poisoned apple after this. First I sketched a crop of an umbrella scene and then another one. Total disaster. Turned the page vertically and with Staedtler Lumocolor pen drew a witch over all of it.   Another photo ref was a mannequin lying on her side, so included it behind main figure.  A harvest moon watches over the witches and bewitched from the background, surrounded in a surreal fog. Only thing missing is a frog with fangs...Happy Halloween everyone!
