31 Days of HELL-O-Ween 2021:
The Shining
"Come play with us, Danny..." Probably one of the spookiest scenes in "The Shining", it's the Overlook's favorite sisters, the super-creepy Grady Twins along with the elevator of blood.
Tomorrow, "31 Days of HELL-O-Ween" wraps up! Will I actually make it or will I drop the ball on the last day of this dumb, self-imposed, vainglorious endeavor? Be there AND be square to find out!

STEP ONE: Pencils done on 8-1/2" x 11" toned cardstock.

STEP TWO: Here's the first pass in acrylic paint. There's always that awkward middle-stage, where nothing looks right, and this is one of them. At this point in the painting, they both look like middle-aged escapees from a Wes Anderson movie. Y'know, 'cuz of the symmetry an all that.

STEP THREE: Here's the finished acrylic painting. Also, I noticed the left eye of the sister on the right was a little higher up and moved it--and the rest of the eye socket--down about an 1/8th of an inch. It's always surprising how much of a small change of an 1/8" here and an 1/8" there can make such a big difference.
