Guardian of the Sugar Skull – Cat ACEO
Vampires, werewolves, witches, and ghouls. I love creepy things in general. Halloween, walks in the cemetery… even taxidermy. The day before Halloween is Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) and I love the decorative Sugar Skulls used to honour the deceased.
I’ve always wanted to try my own Sugar Skull so I took the plunge today by incorporating one in to my latest ACEO… Or I should say half of a one as I wasn’t brave enough to attempt the symmetry on a full skull.
The finished ACEO is titled ‘Guardián de la Calavera de Azúcar’ or ‘Guardian of the Sugar Skull’, and it features a tuxedo cat curled around a Sugar Skull. It is painted in acrylics on watercolour paper.
