Well done you on this, its amazing, its very good and all so recognisable. Top marks for creativity. The black and white sets the mood and links in with the dark side and mysteriousness that can be Halloween. Good luck. Great piece of artwork. A good chuckle too.

Time flies. Soon it will be Halloween again. Thanks for the reminder.
Your artwork is excellent thought out and composed. Those Abbot and Costello monsters are indeed funny. I like that each one has a individual pose and shows a different expression. The monochromatic amplifies the ghostly feeling. The artwork is well framed. The composition is balanced.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


Wow, I can perfectly understand your inner reaction to this composition as the monsters really show up through their character, and we can feel perfectly that something heavy is going on, just like fighting against the covid lies, and they want to continue to kill us - a very different composition to show us what is going on backstage

Excellent detail work, fantastic use of space as these many people are well-placed, and it looks like a momental picture -excellent detail work - great color application with the black and white creating the perfect situation, you wanted to apply, well done, great job

Cool,James!
I used to 'get a kick' out of these guys and I'm enjoying your pastel drawing of them in one of their Classic 'On Screen' adventures!

A fun creation of monsters with Abbot and Costello. You do a great job with pastels. The details and composition are clear and well thought out.
It certainly did give me a chuckle.
Sorry you've been feeling bad. I totally relate.

This did make me smile and I can see how you enjoyed creating it. You captured each physically and emotionally. Since I grew up watching these movies, it really spoke to me and brought back wonderful memories. Love the look on Costello's face!
