I love this little painting.  It is an odd one, in a way.  But it has grown on me.  The colors work so well together and that pumpkin is so gloriously orange and then those odd words just click for me.  I do not know if they will for you or not.  I know they are a bit strange.

Hopefully this unusual little painting will bring smiles to some fellow Halloween fan out there.  Someone who shares my love of Jack-o-lanterns. 

How Pumpkin was created.....   First, I primed this canvas with black acrylic gesso.  Then I used palette knives to apply some thick underpainting in wild colors.  I scraped away the paint from a small "window" area and left that smooth.  Once all that dried, I used traditional paint brushes to bring this image to life.

(The staple-free sides are painted to match so you can display this painting unframed if you like.)

This piece was created on a gallery stretched canvas primed with black acrylic gesso.  The image continues around the staple-free sides.  This painting may be displayed unframed either directly on the wall or on a decorative display easel.  Or it can be easily and affordably framed as it required no matting or glass.
