Phantasmic Photo Backdrop
Halloween is
just around the corner and this year I decided to make something special! The
ghostly holiday falls on a Friday this year which equals perfect party potential!
What does every epic Halloween party need (other than booze)? A supernatural photo backdrop!
I used a super
cheap plastic shower curtain purchased at Target for my canvas and decided it
was better to draw out a plan before beginning the project.
This is my Haunted House sketch that I had originally planned on using for my backdrop,
but like most of my plans it totally changed once I started painting.
The progression…
I ended up doing
a dancing skeleton with a Van Gogh-esque nighttime sky. I went for a cute
Halloween scene instead of gory and scary one. I used a variety of materials to
make the backdrop, mostly just things I had laying around the house. Any fabric or
plastic I attached to the scene was done so using a hot glue gun.
