Halloween Twilight Panel - Country View Crafts Design Team

Twilight 

Imagine it's dusk, there's a clear starlit sky and the moon is bright and golden and shining down across the wooded landscape. Slowly the nocturnal creatures are emerging into the shadows and a gentle breeze is beginning to rise. The leaves are rustling and whispering together softly whilst beautiful spidery sculptures of silvery threads entwine between them often glistening as they catch the light of the full moon. Bats are seen swooping and flying between the trees looking for their food and are beginning to gather together before migrating or hibernating. A large black bird with shimmering plumage alights on a branch of the gnarled tree amd cautiously surveys the area around him.  

It is October 31st, it is twilight and so a Halloween night of chills and tension begins.

Process Steps

I had such fun putting this panel together I thought I would frame it to go on the sideboard at Halloween. When I'd finished I also took some close detail photos. I love how 3D it looks now.
