Moonlight and shadows highlight the scene. A creepy jester sits staring at us. Balancing a skeleton on one finger, he is awaiting the arrival of a guest. All his surroundings add a nightmarish feeling to this special Halloween night.

Hi Randy looked and looked for a new work of Halloween ! You are the king of this holiday! , with your skillful renderings of the many meanings of life . This was first in your page a few days ago and it held my attention looking at the subtle and not so subtle meanings . The word freedom on the left held my attention and imagination. Freedom of choice , freedom from pain, freedom from rules , freedom from wheel chairs or other handicaps , or ??,? Hope you are enjoying the fall weather . Will be going to New Zealand this month . Longer trip than China .My art is journaling. Take care my friend .

Wow the composition and your creativity in this painting took my breath away Randy!! this is like watching a never ending horror movie of the Halloween theme and i see one scare after the next. the jester is so creepy indeed, i don't think i will have the guts to go there to trick or treat, especially with the bloody axe laying there. the hangman on his hat is brilliant and the shadows are powerfully expressive. you amazed me with this remarkable art my friend. i love this work!!

Very interesting and intriguing Halloween image, Randy! The expression on the jester's face is most ghoulish! Needless to say, but I will, I love the moon's glow and those gorgeous clouds blanketing the nightmarish night! l/f
