My daughter, Micala, is really into graphics of all kinds.  She draws, takes award winning photos, and  . . . . carves!

She free-handed this design from a picture and carved this pumpkin.  I think it looks pretty cool.

In case you can't quite tell, its a dragon, her favorite mythical creature.  Here it is in daylight, and all lit up.  I love fall in north Texas.

It looks really good lit up. We used to carve them when my son was small and they are tough. So good going

Wow , I have to tape on the paper graphics and hope my pumpkin looks a little like the picture. Your daughters eye and hand skills are amazing.

As her Dad, Of Course I agree.  But to take the Dad factor out, the judges at the county fair think she's good as well.  She's been taking home firsts in different categories for a few years now.

 

Thanks Charlie and Laura for stopping by.

Thanks for the compliment.  She and her Mom get most of the credit.

Wow, that is an amazing job!  How old is she?  She really has some talent; everytime I try and do something this fancy with a pumpkin, it always ends up caving in within a day or two.

Ever since she was 2, she's been 15. And that's been going for for the past 13 years!

Mike, your daughter is very talented and should pursue an art career. I saw her dragon and it is very detailed and beautifully carved. Putting a design on a pumpkin is not a very easy thing to do.

I bring to your party this Halloween border
