Tarjetas de las Calaveras

Tarjetas de las Calaveras

Collage on 11x14" canvas board, covered with red patterned tissue paper. A large skull picture and Loteria cards are joined by a row of grinning skulls made from bone. Encaustic wax in clear and red coat the piece.

The last piece for Open Studios! Now comes all the nuts and bolts of framing, matting, adding hangers, doing labels and price tags, sending postcards, etc., etc., etc. Busy weeks leading up to Oct. 17!

  1. Cool piece, but what does "Tarjetas" mean?

  2. Margot, 'tarjetas' are cards... We know this 'cause of "usted tiene su tarjeta de biblioteca?"

    Erin, you need to quit making cool stuff with skulls on it... I'm getting overwhelmed with potential purchases!!! =)
