the Soul's Night - new calavera for 2014

It is that time of the year again, what I start to create all kinds of Calavera scenes for the Dia de los Muertos season. 


Here is the first of my creations:  the Soul's Night.


This scene of a Calavera praying was different for me.  I painted the background for the bones a royal deep blue,  I usually leave the background white, as in the traditional calavera style, but I have to create the vision I'm given.  This scene also contains tears, I've never added tears before and didn't know how in the world I was going to accomplish that, but I figured it out (whew!). 


So here is the newest calavera in the Rosie Girl Art collection, hope you like it!
