Paired up with another artist for the July Ripped Off show, this is one of my entries. I've ripped off Juried EBSQ member Jordana Hawen (http://www.ebsqart.com/Artists/cmd_29582_profile.htm) and her totally awesome tattoo-inspired sugar skulls.
My skulls here are photographs of real skulls, digitally dyed and painted, with stone eyes. I assemble these digitally, because they leave fewer scraps than traditional collage. They are all freehand creations. This "Sugar Skull" has tattoo-inspired tribal designs made of gum-drops and green mints encircling it.
This piece is a work of digital art, and as such, can be purchased in sizes ranging from 5x7s up to 16x20 inch fine-art Giclee prints. They are printed on fiber-based fine art paper and can be mounted on foam core. All these prints are signed and hand numbered in limited runs of 50, but can be purchased in notecard/journal/other product form.
