Day of the Dead celebrates loved ones who have passed away, and is not a morbid but a joyful holiday.Colorful and celebratory, it is a fun holiday filled with flowers, food, images of skeletons and family get together.
I didn't make it to any festivities this year due to my surgery, however, my friend Crystal humored me and let me paint her up and do photographs.
