Calavera Foam Prints - 7th Grade

November 1st was  El Dia De Los Muertos which is otherwise known as The Day of the Dead.  This is a very important holiday in Mexico in which families remember loved ones.  During this celebration, people create altars which display food, flowers, candy, photographs and art.  Of the pieces of art displayed are colorful calavera's or skulls.  Students looked at a variety of skulls and designed their own.  When finished they engraved their design onto printing foam.  Students are currently in the process of printing 3 prints.  Each print has a different color ink and a different color paper.
