Freddie!

Tonight's pumpkin:
Freddie.
Here he is with the lights out.
I screwed up the mouth which is why it looks like his lips are sewn shut.

P.S. Good news I know what I'm going to be for Halloween. 
Now I have to figure out how to make the costume.

    A challenge for you-Actually, this one would comparatively be easy for you, but fun to see. Carve one like Billy the puppet from the Saw films.

    You are truly a Halloween artist, Jorge! Too bad you can't preserve these pumpkins (unless you shellac them?). I love how you're so into this!

    Jorge, that's incredible! Thanks for posting the pic with the inside lights off. I've been wondering what they would be like. It looks almost untouched... and then ...just wow!

    I showed my hubby your pumpkin pictures and he said, "Don't expect me to do anything like that". He actually has made a few neat ones using patterns, in years past.

    My kids saw your pictures and said, "Coooooool!"

    Okay, this is SO not fair. You're an amazing actor, you sing fantastically, and now you're the Michelangelo of pumpkin carving. Save some talent for the rest of us, geez! ;)

    Don't know what to be more in admiration of, your incredible carving skills or the fact you're growing tomatoes this time of year, I forget there are places in the world that still get some sunshine!!!

    Hmm maybe you could combine the two and when your fruit is ripe you can do tomatoe mini-carvings?

    now there's a challenge!

    :)

    At Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party tonight at the Liberty Tree Tavern, Chip saw a mom and a dad dressed like Jack and Kate from Lost. It was exciting. They even had their Oceanic Airlines tickets. Chip enjoyed it.

    Since you guys are early carvers, take a look on this website and get some more inspiration:

    Jorge,
    Have you considered looking into Falstaff? By the time you hit your 40's it is a role that could carry you for years between movies and TV. The character is one of the most interesting and beloved in theater and could be a celebrated one for you in more than one language. I have done him for years and can tell you that he is a challenge every time, and likewise a joy. Victor Buono played him for the last 20 years of his life, and Orson Welles love the character time and time again. Just a thought from a fan and fellow actor. C. Wayne Owens
