Survivoring Halloween ...

October is Halloween, and different artists have good examples of what meaning it is for them.

I feel scared in the dark ...

Here is the beginning of a poem by Robert Graves

THE SURVIVOR COMES HOME

Despair and doubt in the blood:

Autumn, a smell rotten-sweet:

What stirs in the drenching wood?

What drags at my heart, my feet?

What stirs in the wood?

Once in a blasted wood,

A shrieking fevered waste,

We jeered at Death where he stood:

I jeered, I too had a taste

Of Death in the wood.

 Here's what I've used:

DecoArt Media Gesso White, Black and Paste

Andy Skinner/Tando Creative stencil Skullduggery

Andy Skinner/DecoArt stencil Incoqnito

 Archival ink, art journal, fabric with rust, gaze, cardboard, quote chips,

charcoal and watercolor

Forgive if I'm too serious.

One of my favorite writers is Robert Graves and his poem fits my feelings

on this journal page.

I wish you a creative month and come join us
