Description
In the spirit of the oncoming holiday.... My FAVORITE holiday... x3... *squee*... I decided to do a (digital) painting.Samhain = Halloween. It is the pagan holiday on which it is believed the spirits of the deceased return to our plane of existence for one night.
Only about 4 hours in Corel Painter Essentials 2.
Candle flames done in OpenCanvas 4.
Border + Signature done in Adobe Photoshop Elements.
I wanted to put a cat.. Or a few... In the background... But I forgot. xD
Oh well.

I love it...and one other thing..are you Wiccan or Pagan? It's nice to see someone posting art of one of my favorite holidays...The Feast of the Dead...

Yes I am Pagan.. I've been -seriously- studying and practicing Wicca in particular for a little over a year and a half now.
I believe there needs to be more art based on Paganism and related things.

I am very glad to have finally found someone on this website who is also Wiccan. I have been so for about two years. I agree that there needs to be more artwork celebrating our way of life. Thank-you for replying to my message. My name is Alora, by the way, if you didn't already know.
