Description
In Mexico it's traditional to mourn the dead by making colorful renditions of skulls and skeletons doing fun things. Death is so depressing it should be dressed up once in a while. Just look at this charming lady. How do I know it's a girl? She's covered in flowers. If it was a guy, he would be covered in hardware. Anyway, it's so festive and very colorful. Old blue eyes....

Mike, we have to live with him - if we want or not. The Mexican cultur has a much better way to handle "him" than we. They show him with a funny face, like this here you let us see so beautiful. Maybe - hopefully - he gives us mercy und - a lot of time!!! - Have a nice day - vf - Dagmar

it's digital art technically, probably should change the tag, created by me with feathers and flowers.
