Dia De Los Muertos
This is my latest painting titled "Dia De Los Irasoles," created using a gel plate as part of my ongoing "Dia De Los Muertos" series. I have always been drawn to the beauty and meaning behind El Dia De Los Muertos, a celebration that honors those who have passed while keeping their stories and legacies alive. In this piece, I depicted a woman with traditional face paint, her hair adorned with vibrant sunflowers, a symbol of light and remembrance. Her sparkling green eyes were brought to life with iridescent green paint, adding a luminous depth as they meet the gaze of the viewer.
The palette for this painting was intentionally earthy and warm, reflecting the grounding and celebratory spirit of the holiday. I leaned into soft beige tones, natural greens, and rich browns, complemented by the radiant yellows and oranges of the sunflowers to balance vibrancy with serenity. The combination of these elements captures both the reverence and joy that make the Day of the Dead such a meaningful and timeless tradition.
