Calavera de Mariposas

Today's colorful skull is titled "Calavera de Mariposas", and it comes from Emily Austin of Rockvale, TN. Starting with just an idea of a butterfly for a nose she created this piece with pens, pencils, and paint.

The butterflies and sunflowers are full of cheerfulness that make you want to smile just like this skull is.  A fitting tribute to remember, with liveliness, those who have passed before us in the most positive of lights on Dia de los Muertos.  Thanks for adding this to our weekend, Emily!
