Día de los Muertos

Worktable_1826aI know, a little out of season right?  :)  I decided today that I wanted to plan an "Art Night" at my house this October with a Day of the Dead theme.  But I needed something to put on the invitation, so I stopped by Michael's and yep – they had just what I was looking for – a paper mache skull.  It started out just craft-paper-brown.  I painted it black to begin with, then out came the colors.
Close_1819 I've been just working on paintings for an art opening next week, so it was nice to make something totally unrelated this evening.  I needed some play time as opposed to gotta-get-it-done-by-a-deadline time.  This was just messy fun.  I didn't think too much about it or worry about making it "just right".
Whole_1854 My daughter thinks her Spanish teacher will like it.  🙂

Ok, tomorrow….back to the regularly scheduled programming.  I've got Miss Muffet done & ready to show you!
