"Xochitl Study" for the Dia de los Muertos/ Day of the Dead Mujeres Valientes Show

 


This is my "Xochitl Study" that I did for the Dia de los Muertos/ Day of the Dead Mujeres Valientes Exhibit at the Ontario Museum of History & Art in 2021.  It was a year when I didn't feel I'd be able to finish the full sized painting that I started for them so I submitted this colored pencil drawing on toned paper.  I bring it up this year because my schedule was too complicated to even ask them to consider me this year for their show, but I'm hoping to complete this year the painting that this drawing was a study for that I started for them so many years ago...


I'll try to post a wip work in progress image of my Xochitl painting in the not too distant future.  Please look forward to it.
