Marie Jean Saxton Halloween Special (for the 'Digital Art' section)

in

Personally I am not a believer in celebrating Halloween and I certainly do not open my front door to the hordes of little brats that come trick or treating. It beats me how that American tradition was picked up in this country? I do remember fondly as a teenager on the estate I used to live on when one sole kid was trick or treating going door to door. I had told him not to bother knocking at my fathers house as he will get nothing for his troubles but a flee in his ear. Sure enough the kid knocked and ended up explaining trick or treat to my Dad for twenty minutes. And when he asked if he would get any sweets or money he was given a stern 'No' and had the door slammed in his face.. Well I did warn him !

So here is the lovely Marie Jean Saxton with Devil horns I purchased from Amazon and a pink suit on. I have had to shift the colour in Photoshop to make it red, but I just love the pointed shoulders the jacket has. It adds a certain style to the pictures. The laptop images are copied from a front cover of a magazine I picked up from the train station that featured a cartoon of the Devil offering bad things on the internet. The image stuck in my head and I wanted to bring it to life. I think it worked out quite well. So thank you to model Marie Jean Saxton and Phil Lynam at the Boardroom Studio in Derby.
