Today is Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead). I love the colorful skulls for this holiday. My artwork ended up coming out not quite the way the standard ones look, but I like the ghoulish creepy look of mine.

 I created this using GIMP 2.10.6.

"Paris Catacombs" / "Día de Muertos" - Postcard

(Click on image to enlarge)
This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Paris."

November 02 is All Souls' Day, also known as Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead). I'm still in the mode of Allhallowtide, so when I thought of Paris this time, I thought of the catacombs. The words in the background are from one of the inscriptions in the catacombs.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.14.

"Dia de Muertos" – Tag

This week’s Tag Along challenge #59 was "Spooktacular."

This is 1 of 2 tags that I created for this challenge, because I couldn't decide which one I liked better.

Tag 1 is for Dia de Muertos, the day after Hallowe'en (November 1). It is also known as Day of the Dead, All Souls Day, and All Saints Day. Tag 2 is for Hallowe'en. I think Tag 1 has a little more "pop" to it, and I like it better than Tag 2.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.14.

The vintage images are from a DuckDuckGo search. (See the side of my blog for links.) The words in the background are from Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
