@Aleksey Nice! That turned out really well 
AUGUST CONTEST: SUPERSTITION
-
Here's my entry.
-
@Chip-Valecek I am new to the forum and to the contest can you tell me when they usually announce the contest prompt? And when is the deadline for the artwork to be submitted? Thank you
-
@Olga-Herrera The prompt is usually announced within the first week or so of the month. From there you have all month to work on it. Create a new thread to share your process or get feedback. Then submit your final piece to this thread by the last day of the month.

Irish Superstition: To stave off sorrow a solo magpie brings to its passerby, another brings joy.
I am very happy how this turned out. The subject matter is very close to my heart this past year.
I hope you like it.

Here ya go! My superstition is a mirror one. if you put two mirrors in front of each other, you open a threshold for the devil (Some variations are ghosts, whitches, other supernatural things)

Here's my entry for this months challenge!
This particular superstition of hanging lemon and chillis outside the entrances of homes, shops etc. is still very commonly practiced in many parts of India.
(The scientific logic behind it is actually a DIY insect repellant used in ancient times).

@dkroese this is great. I love the look of your girls and the spooks. Color palette is perfect. Nice work.

@Su so clever. I love the simplicity of it yet yet there is such good story telling in it. Nice!

A cracked looking glass has turned Alice’s wonderland into a superstition-land, mostly bad, but a glimmer of hope with the glimpse of a rabbit’s foot.

@holleywilliamson that is a really clever take on this. I would read that story.
