In my fifth piece about the imagination of the child, I decided to have my little girl pretend that she is a witch, casting a magic spell. When I started thumbnailing and creating the piece, it was right around Halloween. I have her standing over a large pot full of bubbles and other objects which works as her cauldron. For this illustration, I decided to have different parts of my composition push out of the border, which helps activate it even more.
