What a great way to bring back the challenges.
I like the Irish legend of Stingey Jack not being allowed into both heaven and hell and having to wander in the darkness between the two. As this is supposedly where the Jack-o-Lantern comes from (and maybe apple bobbing), I’d like to do a picture of some pumpkin spirits adrift on a black pond in their pumpkin corracles. The pumpkin spirits would be akin to candle flames and light the ‘nightime’ scene. The main focus would be on a few spirits who are trying to catch a floating apple in their toothless maws to feed their drifting hunger, but the corracles are unstable and one has fallen in and evaporated in a puff of steam, to the horror of the others.
Good luck to everyone.
