Hand drawn and rendered… Saint Death (also known as La Santísima Muerte, and Doña Sebastiana), is a religious figure who receives petitions for love, luck, and protection. Although the Catholic Church has attacked the worship of Saint Death as a pagan tradition, many people insist on praying to this figure for miracles. Those who pray to this figure are often seeking the recovery of health, stolen items, or kidnapped family members. Saint Death is often depicted as a female figure, dressed as a grim reaper with a scythe and scales; also she can be dressed in a long white satin gown and a golden crown. In this form, many devotees view her as a variation of the Virgin Mary. / Some believe the cult of Saint Death originated from ancient witchcraft; however, Saint Death may have his/her roots in pre-Christian beliefs of the Aztec Native Americans who worshiped a similar figure by the name of Mictlantecuhtli, the god of death, along with his wife, Mictecacihuatl. The Day of the Dead (El Día de los Muertos in Spanish) is a holiday celebrated mainly in Mexico and by people of Mexican heritage. Family and friends gather to pray for and remember friends and relatives who have died. Many people believe that during the Day of the Dead, it is easier for the souls of the departed to visit the living. During the period most people visit the cemeteries where their loved ones are buried and decorate their graves with ofrendas, or offerings, often including orange marigolds called “cempasúchitl” (now usually called “Flor de Muerto” (“Flower of the Dead”)). These flowers are thought to attract souls of the dead to the offerings. A common symbol of the holiday is the skull (colloquially called calavera), which celebrants represent in masks, and foods such as sugar skulls, which are inscribed with the name of the recipient on the forehead. Sugar skulls are gifts that can be given to both the living and the dead. Some people believe that possessing “dia de los muertos” items can bring good luck. Many people get tattoos or have dolls of the dead to carry with them. The artist recommends a lighter colour tee for maximum detail. A darker tee will hide the black line work.

I used this royalty free clipart I purchased and some of my own photos and textures to make a new piece who’s title is inspired by the Tori Amos song Daisy Dead Petals. The lyrics are below because I can’t find a recording online. / / daisy dead petals / that is her name / she’s in a phone booth phase, so / underneath the shade of a peppermint tray / she can turn it out with a heel on / she just rides into town / knowing what they’ll say / knowing they’re around the corner / got a crack in / got a crack in some strange places daisy dead petals / that is her name / so maybe she tastes like a hamburger maid, well / these dead petals, honey, brought me here / she said, “these dead petals, honey, brought me here” dancing on a dime, / hearing mother cry / maybe she’s around the corner got a crack in / got a crack in some strange places / on my back with / on my back with some dirty dishes falling down, falling down / all over the river / falling down, falling down / falling down… wish what i’m feeling could / go on like this forever / falling down, falling down / falling down… and since we’re down / might as well stay / might as well fry some eggs / and wave to the shade of the peppermint tray / she’s a new friend not a skeleton / to ride into town / knowing what they’ll say / knowing she tastes like a hamburger maid, but / “these dead petals, honey, brought me here” / she said, “these dead petals, honey, brought me here” © Sword & Stone

I turned up at Swanes Rose Nursery only to find their blooms all either rotting and dead, or having lost their ‘heads’ altogether! So, I did what any self respecting photographer would do – took over 100 shots of withered and dead roses! I must confess I find some of the decaying blooms attractive in their own right. Blended with a photo of rust here in CS3 to add to the aged look. FEATURED in Digital Art Compilations Group 12 June 09 Landscapes Trees Cards EOD Rusty Flowers Architecture Macro CatchAll DM
