2025 Douglas Halloween Parade!

This was the rest of the illustration package I did - this included the Facebook banner, circle window cling, t-shirt and the square post card.

Above are some of the process shots as I was working, and below is the final poster!

Guess what...? I'm back again for my third year illustrating the Douglas Halloween Parade poster! I beginning to find that this is a job I look forward to all year - I realized in early April I was already considering different designs for the future poster!

Needless to say I was super excited to get started on this year's design.

Given the state of the world at the moment, I decided to not go in a classic Halloween, dark, scary and spooky direction. I wanted this year's poster to be bright, colorful and clean without coming off as childish. So I ended up finding inspiration in Art Deco framing, Arts & Crafts patterns and 70's color palettes... really taking from all sorts of art movements over the past 120 years!

Hope you enjoy this design as much as I enjoyed making it, and I so hope you can make it to the parade - don't miss it!!

From left to right (or top to bottom if you're on a phone), this is the t-shirt design, the VIP tickets and the large double sided poster!

I had such a wonderful time making this year's design... what a hoot!! Can't wait to start planning next years. <3
