"That proves you are unusual, returned the Scarecrow;
and I am convinced the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones.
For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree,
they live and die unnoticed."
I'll be heading out to the Farm today with my 6 year old's class. And I have to be honest and say that I'm not much looking forward to it. Dirty, smelly animals just aren't my thing, and it's supposed to rain to boot. Oh joy joy!
So I figured today's art would be a fitting tribute to what I might find at the farm. At least the kind of spooky ole' farm I'd like to stumble upon. A sinister Scarecrow perhaps, standing ominously in a darkened field, beneath a crescent moon, with it's big pumpkin head flickering in and out, on a foggy, rain soaked night.
Okay, so it won't be night time, and I can do without the rain....but with any luck there will be a sinister Scarecrow such as this somewhere. (Click to view full size.) I then plan to reward myself later tonight by covering up with a warm soft blanket and watching "Trick R Treat". I hope it's as good as everyone says, and I also hope everyone has a great Autumn weekend!
(Oh...and in case anyone was wondering why I title the things that I create with 'My Art', or 'My Photography', etc....it's because I needed a way of easily looking back through my blog posts to make sure that I haven't previously posted a piece before. The memory ain't what it used to be, and I'm too unorganized to keep myself a list. If I don't have them denoted in some way, I would have to look back through every post to be certain. And as the months come and go, that just isn't feasible. Hopefully it will serve to prevent me from posting something more than once. )

Love this - gosh, you really are the queen of digital art! I can't even figure out Photoshop - LOL!
I do hope you find some fun and spookiness at the farm!
I like it, a lot!!!
Have fun at the Farm!
Who knows what you might encounter on a rainy day at the farm! Enjoy :)
That's a really nice spooky scarecrow. I want badly to watch Trick R Treat, I envy you as I cannot find it here... But there are lots of horror movies on youtube, so I might get something interesting.
Never turn your back on a Scarecrow! But do have fun at the farm. :) Becca
I wish I could do more with photoshop I'm still learning.
Oooh...your desciption of the farm you want to find reminds me of a book I read last winter...Bad Moon Rising.
It's a trilogy. You should check them out. :)

Well we survived the farm...barely. I was more interested in getting to the pumpkin patch though. Thanks for your feedback on the Scarecrow. I really like him a lot. And there were scarecrows at the farm. But they were all goofy looking and apparently purchased about 6 years ago and left to weather the effects of time.
And Guillume, that's rotten that you can't get your hands on a copy. Let me know if you ever want me to send you anything that you can't get your hands on over there. I'd be happy to do so. Hope you and your wife have a lovely Fall weekend! :o)
I remember this guy! He's spook-tacular!! Are you going to put up the big scarecrow this year?
