Created with acrylics paints, it allows one to display this painting outside or indoors.Perfect to greet your holiday guests in the Fall. The original is  small sized at 7" x 5" .
It was created by me  and painted on thin birch wood plywood. I attached a  saw tooth hanger on the back. I first painted the base black, then painted  sage green over the black. If you don't have a sage color, then mix a little white to a Christmas Green, or a basic green  to get this soft green color as shown. Get the craft outline for this painting......

Boo to you Halloween painting or drawing craft outline to make your own scary artwork. The pumpkin that the ghost is holding is printed in light blue.

To paint the ghosts, use a watered down white acrylic paint. Paint long wide strokes with a 1/4" or larger flat artist brush.You want to have the background color seem to show the ghost. So you don't want to paint solid white that has no depth. If you don't like the results after you paint one ghost, quickly wipe it away with a damp Wet One or paper towel and start again.
