These gorgeous carved pumpkins were created by Linda Riddle, an amazingly talented artist who lives in Pacific Grove, CA. She covers her front yard with smiling suns and moons; stars near and far. The result is a glorious galaxy of light. I’m in awe of Linda’s work and inspired to *attempt* to make a jack-o-lantern galaxy of my own!
