/// DEAD MANS CHEST

One of the three Artworks done for the Sinco De Mayo which is basically the day of the dead Festival. The vision came to me in a dream and at the time it sounded good enough to be explored further more, thus I decided to illustrate it in Adobe illustrator. The artwork resembles a cartoony yet very cheery abstract form .
