Remembering our Ancestors

Before I wish you a happy Day of the Dead, let me say that I am back now and have been paid for last month. This is a very busy time of year for me and I really enjoyed the vacation. But it’s over now so…

¡Feliz Día de los Muertos!

#1 alternate background

this is pretty trippy, but far too powerful for a background if I plan to have a female figure in front of it (and I most certainly do)

you probably can't tell, but she's wearing a different corset here. that the skull and her hairstyle have changed are more obvious

basically an underpainting but it looks pretty slick, doesn't it?

there were a lot of ways to go for this piece, but ultimately deciding to go washed out managed to evoke the best vibe

Happy day of the dead bro. I honor this day by thinking of my loved ones that have passed away, How the hair is on this one makes for one awesome look.

sharp treatments usually tend to flatter hair

  The background is a great mix of iconography and a feeling there should be more…

    it sorta begs for a foreground, but what could compete with it?
