Hey folks, this is my first art post here... be gentle!

This painting was done for a Day of the Dead show. It's acrylic on board, 2 feet by 4 feet.

title:
fantasmas y alcoholes en el día después del día de los muertos
or:
spirits and "spirits" on the day after the day of the dead

That's fucking awesome. I love the use of pastels in conjunction with the theme. Is it being hung anywhere?

Hey thats awesome! The use of bright colors on a hung over skeleton is pretty sweet. I would hang that in my house for sure.

Hey jbm, can I have your permission to save that picture and use the skele as my msn picture?

Thanks everyone!!

JumpinJesus: it was hung in a group show in Shreveport, Louisiana... it was a Day of the Dead themed thing. Show's down now, though.

Giant Hamburger: now you've gone and made me *have* to do a painting like that. Seriously!

Crompsin: It *is* for saaaaallle, hmmmm. LOL. I also have prints of it in my etsy shop.

blahblah: feel free, I am super flattered!

That's really cool. Your characters are really great, defined without becoming stiff, and the color is truly wonderful.

This is honestly perhaps the coolest painting I've ever seen. I would love it in my room right above my bed to see when I wake up all hung over.

I love this painting. Is there any chance of getting a print larger than 8.5" x 11"?

foosball:

unfortunately, right now.. no. the curator of the show it was in still has it, so I have no way to take a higher-res pic of it to make a larger print. soon as I get it back, I will offer bigger sizes!

punk: THANKS!
