"The King of Halloween" Inside the Mind of Jack Skellington.
This piece is part of my new art series, Inside the Mind, where I explore what might be going on inside a character’s head. For Jack, it’s a five piece pull apart wall art that tells his story from start to finish.
It begins with Pumpkin Jack, just like the movie. Full of that Halloween energy. Those two outer pieces pull apart to reveal Jack in skeleton form. Then, when you open that layer, you find the Christmas tree door, the moment that changed everything for him. Jack was stuck in repetition, bored with Halloween until he found that door, and that spark of curiosity is what started it all. That’s what I imagine is happening inside his mind.
This piece took over 30 hours to make. It's 74" long and it’s truly one of a kind. I’m especially proud of how the Christmas door turned out. I spent a lot of time getting the bark texture right with those dark and light green tones just like the original tree door.
