ArtistHalloween still life rendered full-screen, sidelit by the creepy, pale orange glow of a street lamp outside the picture. Sharp-focus, macro-view, very close-up and in watercolor. The subject of the frontal-viewed still life is a close-up of an extremely intricately carved pumpkin, nothing else, only one pumpkin. The delicate line-art carving shows an amazingly accurate Van-Gogh Starry-Night motif on the pumkin, not a classical jack-o'-lantern. The carving is illuminated in pale yellow by the candle inside the pumpkin against the otherwise dark orange jack-o'-lantern. Art piece entry in a neighborhood exhibit of artfully carved pumpkins. It is a dark Halloween night lit only by the carved pumpkin and the sickly orange light of the streetlamp. The night background of the still life is rendered in wet-on-wet alcohol ink and is painted all the way to the edges of the paper whereas the Van-Gogh jack-o'-lantern is lovingly, deftly and painstakingly rendered in diaphanous watercolor with extreme, ornate, exquisite detail, with some outline details highlighted in pen-and-ink, like a biology illustration. Prize-winning illustration, museum-quality aquarelle sketch on heavy handmade rag paper.
This was supposed to be a single jack-o'-lantern carved with a Starry Night scene in Van Gogh's style. But the machine repeatedly ignored my prompts and said "I can do it better."
