A Pink Halloween in Mexico. In this artwork I wanted to emphasize spirituality and the paranormal by painting a cat with wings who stands guard over the souls of the deceased. The adobe in the background is to celebrate the Mexican culture and the sugar skulls are inspired by Dia De Los Muertos or Day of the Dead. The owl in the tree also has symbolism as this is a night creature, speaking the language of the underworld. Created in a cute whimsical way, this is a unique folk art painting that is truly a one of a kind.
