I received a message from my brother
politely asking me to make him a sugar skull.
He knows I have an affection
for Mexican EVERYTHING
(people, art, food, decor. . . ).
I have an appreciation for cultural traditions
and history even if I don't share in,
or adhere to the beliefs behind them.
For this piece, I found a basic skull outline
online and took it from there.
Using assorted pens, pencils and markers, it
took me a few days to
finish this piece.
This was the first of two skulls drawn for him.
The second one was my favorite,
but I forgot to get a picture
before I sent it out.
~So not like me!
Maybe he'll be so kind as to send me a picture
of the other one and I'll post that as well.
He was very happy when he got them,
which makes me very happy.
