This is a linocut - very different from the other submissions.
Original size 12x18"
Happy Halloween

@S-Minzy really impressive lino cut, a bit gruesome for me but I understand and appreciate the work and I like the wolf under the table.

Hi ! I'm new here ! I discovered the SVS Podcast at the beginning of October and I enjoyed it so much that I decided to try to do this October challenge ! I really enjoy seing everyones work ! (Plus it makes me practice, practice, practice) I tried to do a larger scene, since I don't do complex scenes very often !! Good luck everyone !

@Dima-Eichhorn your email for the forums is not tied to your email on the SVS site. As long as your name is the same they will be able to tell you are subscribed.

@Chip-Valecek Thank you a lot for the answer, Chip! And good luck to you this month.

@ValD I think you did a real nice job for not doing many works like this. It's good when we push ourselves and discover we can really do it!

Everyone here has posted awesome work! This is my first SVSLearn contest and I had an absolute blast doing it! I chose to do a 2 page spread. I hope everyone likes it!!

ValD · 28 Oct 2020, 21:00

@Heather-Boyd Yeah exactly !! Being part of a group, or doing a challenge helps to push ourselves to try things. And thanks ! It's so cool to see what people did, what story they created !

Here's my entry for this month in gouache & watercolour pencils. I've tried to put more emphasis on contrast after last month's entry!

S Minzy · 29 Oct 2020, 19:06

@Heather-Boyd I appreciate the kind words. Thank you!

JessicaStauffer · 29 Oct 2020, 20:26

Wow! Amazing entries everyone! I'm pretty happy with how my characters turned out this month! Happy Halloween!

@Heather-Boyd I really love yours, Heather. I love the shapes and the color. Those foxes are my favorite. I like how simplified it is.

This contest sounded like too much fun to not participate. I changed the headline to "Everyone was having a great time at the Halloween Party until...." as I have never been to a Halloween feast, but many parties :). I hope that is OK.
