Joe was away for a couple days last week, so Sebby and I thought it would be a good time to get started on our annual Halloween crafting. On Monday evening, we journeyed down to our arts & crafts supply depot in the basement to see what we could find. We happily came across some vintage roofing slate Joe picked up for us a couple years ago. Sebby has been wanting to try his hand at painting slate for a while, so we decide to paint Halloween scenes on slate. Sebby did a great job on this project and we had a really nice time working on it. Our “art time” is some of the best together times… just Sebby and Mommy. ♥

Here is Sebby with the 'blank slate' he is about to repurpose into its new life as ART! |
Sebby was planning an outer space background, so he began by painting his entire slate black. I liked how it looked, so I did the same to mine. |
The next day, after the black paint was dry, we sketched our designs and began to paint. |

After painting, we added some finishing touches with colored pencil. |

Finished slate- an Alien sucking up Halloween Pumpkins into his space ship (very original). He really did a great job, huh?! |

Last, here is mine- traditional. :-) |
Thanks for stopping by Imagi-creation!
Happy October!
