"ALL HALLOW'S EVE"

It is said that Halloween originated in Ireland. That's probably why I like the Holiday so much, as I'm 1/2 Irish!

Or maybe it's because it brings back all of the wonderful childhood memories of dressing up in costumes and going out trick- or- treating with my friends .

All of the items pictured below are SOLD and are in private collections, shops or Galleries.
