Haunted House

8x5.5 watercolor and ink on Strathmore Visual Journal for mixed media finished today.  Initial ink sketch done yesterday with Pigma Micron 01 pen from life using a small Halloween resin house.  I ignored local color and made up my own including an eerie sky.  Also made up the foreground of the tombstone, pumpkins, black cat, and man's head.  All 3 ghosts were made up as were the other creatures of the night haunting the roof.  A fun little piece.  Boo!

A most delightful incantation indeed Kay. Whimsical and imaginative. Fabulous job.
