A digital painting of little ghosties doing their shopping at The Shambles street in York - one of the oldest and best preserved medieval streets in the world!  

The inspiration for this piece:

York has a reputation for being one of the most haunted cities in England and has so many wonderful quirky little shops. I visited the city recently for the very first time and found The Shambles so busy with people that I had to come back after dark to get a good photo.

When returning to the street at night, all was quiet and this image popped into my head! I wanted to paint what it might look like when the ghosts do their shopping after all the tourists have gone home.

Fun fact: the little ghostie carrying a ghost ornament out of the York Ghost Merchants is holding a black and orange 'Phantom' - the same one I purchased from the YGM Dispensary that same day!

How it was made:

Painted by me, using a digital pencil and tablet in Procreate. This is based directly from a photograph I took of The Shambles after dark. I wanted it to be dark and spooky, but also fun and a bit whimsical. There are lots of little details here to enjoy and is perfect for anyone who loves a bit of Halloween on display all year round.
