Happy Halloween 2023. This year has been a bit of a bumper year for Halloween pieces, and what is especially good is that many were painted a week or two ago, which means that they have made it into Natural Adventures in time for the special day itself. This wonderful triptych from Evey, Pekoe and Unity, is part of a much larger Resting Bitch Face (RBF) collaboration in Sparke Evans Park.
The special house colours for this Halloween paint jam were suitably orange with touches of bright green, which was adopted for the whole wall. To the left, Evey continues her purple patch with this magnificent piece of writing cleverly popping out from the wall with great shaded edges to the letters. The horizontal fills are very nicely done, with an addition of a few creepy spiders for good measure. Another cracker from Evey.
In the middle is a stunning portrait piece from Pekoe, who always seems to pull the rabbit out of the hat for her Halloween pieces. The portrait reminds me of images of Queen Cleopatra - perhaps it is the hair and the half moon head garment. I suspect that the portrait is of someone specific related to Halloween, but I would have to ask Pekoe to find out. The piece is beautifully finished and right out of the top drawer and one of Pekoe's best in my opinion.
To the right, and rounding off this first Halloween post, is a superb anamorphic piece of graffiti writing by Unity in which the letters appear to stand out from the wall in a soft cuboid arrangement. The piece plays wonderful tricks on the eyes, and it is almost impossible to interpret it as a flat wall. All three of the pieces are adorned with spider webs, to provide that extra spooky sensation. Three outstanding pieces from three great artists.
