The Diá de los Muertos mural

 

    This weekend, Naomi and I returned to Confetti Park downtown to create a chalk mural for the Day of the Dead (or Día de los Muertos). 

    I recreated an image from my new children's book, "Andy and the Mask of the Dead". 

It's a vertical hike up into the park, but the view from where we worked was spectacular!

This is a close-up from the first day.

This is where we were at the end of Saturday.

    Even at the steep incline, I think this was the most dangerous part of creating this. These wires were SO close to us and we had to constantly remember they were right next to us!

I took this photo from above a few steps up.

        Our finished shot! Here it is "Andy's Dance" 

Feliz Día de Los Muertos!!
