I carved this pumpkin last Halloween. The image is from "Donnie Darko," a film written and directed by Richard Kelly. I chose the image because I think the movie is beautiful and unique. I enlarged it, then traced it onto a piece of paper. I then purchased a slender, oval-shaped pumpkin and taped the image over the surface of it. Using a tac I poked holes along the outline of the sketch. Finally, I made my carving. It took forever! But I had fun doing it. I'm a big fan of film and art and I think this carving celebrates both. Can't wait to put up this year's carving.
