Inspired by pumpkin-carving genius Ray Villafane, I started carving pumpkins 6 years ago. As pumpkins only tend to be in the shops for about a month in the UK, I don’t get much chance to practice most of the year and it feels a bit like starting from scratch every October, although I think I am slowly improving.
I work from a photo, so the main challenges are firstly just how deep the pumpkin will let you carve without breaking through the flesh, and secondly trying to convert a 2D picture into a 3D pumpkin—my pumpkins often look quite 3D from the front, but from the side, can look a bit flat.
I sometimes wish the pumpkins would last a bit longer when they’re finished, but the fact they are so temporary encourages me to carry on carving—if they didn’t rot, maybe I would have stopped after one I was particularly proud of, thinking I couldn’t do better next time...

my face when I think I'm done with homework, but my teacher emails us at 9:00 saying he forgot to day in class that we have to write a 5 paragraph essay...

At least 5 paragraphs isn’t much! Depending on whether you already know about the subject, you could have it done within 30 minutes to an hour. I remember when i was in fourth grade our math teacher gave us a 26-page packet of math problems and expected it back by the next day. That was the year I got really behind in math.
