Here's my contribution to today's art prompt at
I did this "line and wash" ink and watercolours sketch
of pumpkins and gourds a couple of weeks ago
for an art class I'm currently taking.

And here's my fave pumpkins from this year's
jack-o-lantern decoration contest
done by tenants in my apartment tower
(slacker that I am, I didn't enter a pumpkin) --
A rather stressed-out Minion
A cute wee Pumpkin House,
complete with inhabitants and furniture.
Love the pie cooling on the windowsill!
An awesome carving of a
beloved family pet
Lookin' good, Frankie!
Here's my personal favourite
(and the contest's winner):
The Stanley Pumpkin!
Its sign says:
OILERS 2025
Play La Bamba, Baby!

Blessed Samhain! I LOVE the pumpkin art and, especially, your line and wash!
Blessed Samhain and Happy Halloween to you my friend. Thank you for all the hilarious posts this season. You keep me laughing! Your ink and color wash is beautiful.
...pumpkins no longer come in just orange.
Vey fun pumpkin art.
The watercolor of pumpkin and squash is superb. I wish I had half your talent.
Hello Debra, I am afraid that Taiwan has taken your Thursday With Rain theme too seriously--we have been having a terrible storm all day, with trees and large limbs down everywhere.

I'm not trying to flatter, but as much as I love all the carved pumpkins, your pumpkin watercolor is the clear winner. The combinations of shapes and colors, and the almost brighter-than-real intensity of the colors, are perfection.

The pagans had it right, holidays and festivals every 6-7 weeks. Love the pumpkins.
You may not have carved a Jack-o-lantern, but I think your watercolor makes up for it.
