Dia De La Muerta Skull

In keeping with my Halloween theme, here is a collaged skull inspired by the Day of the Dead in Mexico. I've always wanted to go to the Dia de la Muerta festival; I can imagine it being quite an experience. The skull is made of origami and other collage papers and glitter glue. It was tweaked a bit with my graphics program in the end, giving it that lovely hot wax coating effect that I totally dig.
