New to my gallery? Then please respect it's content. Thanks! ;)

well, I wasn't planning on finishing this piece but someone convinced me to. Day of the Dead is a day to remember our loved ones who have deceased but rather than being a day for mourning, it's generally a day of cheer and good thoughts. I went to a Day of the Dead festival on Sunday and was inspired to make this piece. However I knew I wasn't gonna finish it in time and so I gave up. My friend convinced me to go through with it regardless of whether or not the holiday is long gone. I hope you guys enjoy this piece as much as I enjoyed making it.

Marigolds according to my dad are called flor de muerto, they are commonly associated with Day of the Dead.

and this be my Guatemalan heritage: [link]

Jamie: I'm 29 and I never went on first base!
Kelly: Jamie... too much information.
Cody: But, Jamie tells everybody on the internet he's a virgin.
Kelly: That isn't relevant. I don't want him discussing his sex life in school.
Jay: What sex life?

=] Hey, now see? This is good. ^-^ I like it very much, it's very unique. It has the classic beauty of Dia de los Muertos and it still keeps true to your style. Aren't you glad you've finished it now?
:iconimcooltight:
Yeah I am but I did it for you more than anything XP

Thanks a lot though!
