Halloween is just around the corner and because of it, we are finding different approaches to that rather Anglo-Saxon party, which little by little has arrived in these parts to make it a special date. Aside from dressing in a special way for Halloween night, there are other ways to celebrate that special day.
It is the idea of an artist named Alex Wer, although he also He is known as The Pumpkin Geek on Instagram, and who could be defined as the king of the art of pumpkins. Web, during the 2009 Halloween party, when his wife asked him if he could carve their company logo into a pumpkin, he took the bull by the horns and got to it.
What he did was choose a pumpkin already created by hand, instead of a real one, so that it could always exist and time would not spoil a natural one. Web found himself taking orders from other companies overnight and began receiving commissions for portraits of children.
Wer's work process, to which it could be called as the technique of the four colors, try to carve at different depths. What this achieves is that a cut, two different levels and another layer for the darkest areas of the image, is able to draw what they have in mind or the request of a client.
When properly lit from inside the pumpkin, you get a very detailed image that, as shown in the images shared here, are capable of attracting anyone's attention.
Each one of Incredible hand-drawn designs takes the artist between 4-6 hours, always depending on the complexity of the job. An interesting artistic proposal by Alex Wer that you can find in on Instagram for Halloween night; like this same makeup.
