It's a marvelous night for a moon dance...

The four of us watched "Return to Oz" tonight. Heather and the girls have seen it many times, but somehow this movie has escaped my knowledge until now. I thoroughly enjoyed it and felt inspired. I started drawing about 3/4 of the way through and came up with my version of "Jack Pumpkinhead".

"Moondance" portrays a happy Jack Pumpkin scarecrow, dancing through a cornfield by the light of the harvest moon. A single crow picks at the Indian corn fallen from the nearby cornstalk.

Pencil, ink, watercolor pencil and pastel were used to create this original artwork. This piece is 6 x 6 inches (15.3 x 15.3 cm).
