Halloween Witch
Halloween Witch by American Painter Gil Elvgren (1914 – 1980); nighean pin-up agus neach-ealain sanasachd, agus dealbhadair.
Halloween Witch is an amusing portrait of a beautiful young lady dressed up in a Halloween costume composed of an orange witches hat with black embossed stars and a black cat, that she is holding with her right hand to keep it from falling off.
The Halloween Witch costume is a black lingerie outfit comprising a corset and a long flowing skirt with an additional sheer mesh shawl that is wrapped around her arms along her back.
To finish off the Halloween outfit she is also wearing black mesh lace stockings that are held in place by a black garter belt and high heel black leather shoes that are curled upwards at the front.
Finally the Halloween Witch is sitting on a broom stick, with her left hand holding on to the top of the broom stick; which is supported on both ends by very thin rope as she swings in front of a very large yellow moon, set against a rich royal blue sky.
