Witchcraft vs Aircraft

"With color one obtains an energy that seems to stem from witchcraft.”

Henri Matisse

I love this cute witchy pilot and her Halloween banner flying through the sky. The witch is of course from the new Third Coast Halloween release! Be sure to check them out.

The skyline is a fun stamp from "Hero Arts". I have a couple of other skyline stamps that I will experiment with between now and Halloween, as well as some house and tree stamps that need a fly-by. There is no end to where you might see a plane flying by with a witch at the helm. ( Is that a mixed metaphor? I guess that should be "in the cockpit"!)

Copic Markers were my coloring tools of choice on this card. Of course there are also no limits on coloring tools. Watercolor crayons, watercolor pencils, prisma color pencils with or without "gamsol".

Are you getting ready for Halloween? It's never too early, or too late!
