Thanks for your continued support,

Dia de los Muertos

















These three pieces (plus one pending) are in celebration of the soon to come day of the dead. They represent several different ways of remembering the dead.

The first image is a collage I did inside a frame I bought at an estate sale with materials I also bought there. The frame still had dust on it from its previous life, and it left me thinking about the previous owner.

The second image is coincidentally also a garage sale find as a base, but was created for the sole purpose of celebrating the holiday.

The third image is of the Korean War Memorial in Washington, D.C.

I am trying to find the original image for a fourth, but have yet to find it.
