These Pumpkin design sketches were done for my pumpkin I carved at the 2014 Chadds Ford Historical Society's Great Pumpkin Carve, held in Chadds Ford Pa.
I also show a Photo of the actual carved pumpkin.
In my original design The Jesus at the gate sketch would have been carved above the flaming skull,which represent the two destination which a person has to chose from,where they will spend eternity.
In this pumpkin carving event a carver does not know how big or what shape their pumpkin will be. The pumpkin must be carved live at the event and within a time limit of four hours.
No electrical tools are allowed to be use in craving one's pumpkin.
My pumpkin was smaller than I expected, and the flesh was about five inches thick.
So I ended up only carving the Jesus standing in the gates illustration.
I carve my pumpkin using a kitchen carving knife,a pair knife,and wood carving hand tools.
If this was not a time event, I would have done both illustrations and would have add more detail.
