Halloween is one of Jack’s very favorite holidays: he loves the costumes, the trick-or-treaters and the festivities. I really love the dark spin the season brings out in art and design.
As Halloween approaches, a few new-to-us pieces with a seasonally spooky theme have caught our eye. There is nothing especially subtle about a skull, but there is beauty in the myriad ways artists incorporate them into their work.
Plus: Steven Wintercroft’s folded, faceted skull mask template (and others!) are available for purchase in his shop, so you can make your very own in time for Friday’s celebrations. Perfect!
Find much more from each artist and information on each piece through links below. What’s your favorite part of this time of year?
