Ancestors Celebrate

In the Day of the Dead tradition, Mexican artisan Angel Ceron handcrafts a ceramic statuette of a skeleton couple ready to celebrate. The man wears a wide, red sombrero and carries a sarape blanket over his shoulder. The woman has a long braid of hair and a party dress. A small dog at their feet joins in the fun. The sculpture is painted in a matte, earthy color palette that complements the medium of ceramic.
