Description
Per request, updated the source image for larger printsJust one direction of a work I'm trying to complete in time for All Soul's Day/Dia De Los Muertos.
In some ways this is probably different than much of wehat I have published lately, but it is also indicative of a lot of the material I have been pursuing in my workbooks.
I had some doodles that were literally stick figures with added detail and then I found some stock submissions from ~blacksockstock that suited my idea quite well. For those that wonder if the DA stock repo is useful for things other than cheesecake and emo blubbering, it most certainly is, as I have found many images that have been useful references to ideas I had -- and I mine that gallery for that exact purpose (as well as for the portraiture series I have long done).

If you are serious about that, I certainly can try to dig out the original source file and resubmit a better print quality image.
Truth be told, I am totally surprised by the reaction to this work (in a good way).

I am serious indeed. I would most likely purchase the photoprint because I am poor, but I would still love to have that hanging on my walls in one shape or another.

Love it. Every line is dropped perfectly into place.
(I did a little Day of the Dead inspired skeleton costume for 31 October this year. No one got it, but I know you would have!

You should post an image of that. I'd be keen to see what demented brilliance you would bring to such an idea.

It was a little half-assed because I, as always, spent more time and energy on the house than my costume. But worse!, I didn't really go out of my way to get any good shots. I'll send you something to give you the idea though.

This is inspiring. The simple line drawings placed on top of each other and the solid colors you use make me want to start drawing again.
