Just a Silly Ole' Punkin

Just a little something for Wednesday. This pumpkin is 8" high by 9" wide, he is made of papier mache, painted with acrylic paints and is just called "Silly Ole' Punkin". He has a big toothy grin and some of his teeth are longer, more protruding than others with a slight overbite, but he proudly displays his smile. You have to love him for that if nothing else!! He isn't a scary guy, but a gentle pumpkin with an allergy to corn pollen that gets up his big nose and makes him sneeze very loudly, which can be frightening to the unaware.


For picture purposes shown above he is atop a large candlestick, but he looks fine sitting on a table with other creations and creatures as shown below.


I'm painting today so hopefully I might have something new for tomorrow. Wish me luck!!
