Dias de los Muertos Continues

Saw someone in costume for the event at Wheatsville today -- should have asked her for a picture! Looked just like a skeleton doll.

I did try the paper cone bush with glow sticks. Not all glow sticks are equal, but it made a low grade, eerie effect and a lovely homage to Ardath Mayhar. My own personal Eyes of Cherry Street. Unfortunately, my little camera was totally not up to pics of it, so you'll just have to use your imagination. I might make another one some time with LED lights.

So that was my ofrenda this year. Dad, Ardath, Kathy -- you're missed. Hope it's restful and interesting, wherever you are....

Apologies for the fractured Spanish, but there are multiple Days of the Dead, depending on where you are.

Finished and submitted.

The grant application is complete and in the mail.


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!

Exhausted.

This was a big, hairy deal, as in I will try to find magazines to sell the essays to....
