Skeletons - Boo!

I went to lunch with the "Lunch Ladies" today on my day out.  I stopped to sketch on the way.  I had about 30 minutes so I sketched for my Hunt that actually starts tomorrow.  I doubt I will get a chance to sketch any more Halloween decorations so cheated and sketched today.  I made the new list and added Halloween decorations for one item.

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 174  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-174-oct-29-nov-10.8417/

Number 1 Halloween decorations - Skeletons, chain saw man and pumpkins in the Ohuhu Mix Media sketchbook with an Ohuhu .5 pen and watercolors.  I left out the big skeleton coming out of the ground.

For a couple of years, David has been sending photos of a house in Kentucky that has skeletons and change them around and dress them up in odd costumes about once a week.  When I saw these on the way to PT a while back I knew I had to sketch them.  On the way home from lunch I drove down a different street and saw other houses with skeletons, some were huge.  Skeletons are popular this year in our world.

These are the ones I sketched today.
