Sculptures, paintings, photographs, creative architecture, art objects in the interior … All this is undoubtedly very beautiful and requires close attention, but how could we forget about the most relevant art, which is usually remembered at the end of October? We are talking about such art as artistic pumpkin carving, or about Pumpkin art, as it is called where Halloween is celebrated on a special scale, and everything, from small to large.
And maybe it is not customary for us, the Slavs, to walk in costumes around neighbors, frightening them by demanding sweets, to decorate an apartment with a beautifully decorated pumpkin, lighting it from the inside with a candle in the evening, are loved by many. And this is where the fun begins, because there are a great many ways, plots and variations for Pumpkin art. And this is not even taking into account the fact that everyone can show their imagination and create something fantastic with a pumpkin, unlike any of the existing models.
I don't know about ours, but in the United States, such creative pumpkins are sold simply in supermarkets, just like Easter cakes in domestic stores. And maybe they are not as interesting as those adorned by real artists experienced in Pumpkin art, but the holiday will not pass without the traditional scary, but cute pumpkin face.
By the way, in the same place, in the United States, every year there is a pumpkin art festival, where you can see absolutely amazing works. Among the goblins, witches and ghosts, you can see carved portraits of famous personalities, characters from films, cartoons and other curious creatures.
