Spooky House Halloween Painting

Would you walk up to this house on Halloween night (house on lower left)?   I've always thought this house looked a little spooky from the day I took the photo and I think it works well in this painting.  Once I finished painting the shrubs and sidewalk, I realized that all the lights are off in this house.  I may have to change that.  I like my Halloween paintings to be child friendly especially with little goblins going door to door.  What do you think, lights on or off?

I started the lower right house this afternoon and hopefully this painting will be finished by the end of next week.

  1. Oh yes; lights on for sure and a pumpkin or two on the front porch! You can never have enough pumpkins in my opinion!

  2. What a great house! (and a great painting!) I would most definitely go up to that house on Halloween! I think lights on... just so the little ones know people are home and they can knock for some treats! Your artwork is so adorable, Catherine! xo

  3. Lights are good...OR all lights with one dark window and a face in the window. LOL. Nah. That's not at all kid friendly.

  5. I think you will "know" the way the windows need to be as you paint along. ;) It is looking wonderful, Catherine. You do such beautiful work. blessings ~ tanna
