Dia De Los Muertos 2012




Some iPhone shots of the painting I did for the annual Dia De Los Muertos show at Arte Americas. I only had 2 weeks to work on it, and actually lagged until the weekend before to start it...something about panic that fuels my process and gets the creative wheels rolling.  The painting is a tribute to my Grandparents, so its only right that I worked all night fueled by coffee, as they were caffeine and nicotine fueled insomniac workaholics. I miss them dearly, and like to think that they would have liked this painting.

The, "Cala Gala", Arte's DDLM celebration is this Friday, November 2nd, with a procession rolling through the Fulton Mall that ends at Arte. I'll be there probably fully painted up. Or I might make a mask or something. I dunno yet. Come hang out, I think I'm gonna make some shirts to sell.

Dia De Los Muertos





My cousin Lalo sent me this photo of the tattoo he just got of the dia de los muertos skull I did for the Village Hill a while back. Quite an honor to permanently ruin a family members skin with one of my drawlings. I'll have to return the favor by getting tattooed with one of his drawings.
