The story behind the print

This Day of the Dead sugar skull poster centres on a cream skull decorated with black eye sockets and dotted patterns, set against a deep blue background. Three orange marigolds in a blue patterned vase sit to the left, while a lit candle and pan de muerto rest on a striped surface below. A large cream circle behind the skull echoes a moon or halo, framed by small white dots.

The composition is symmetrical and vertical, with the skull as the focal point and the floral and food offerings arranged around it. The palette combines blue, cream, orange, and black, with a folk-art illustration style that uses flat shapes and bold outlines. The striped table and patterned vase add texture without distracting from the central figure.

This unframed paper print is produced to order in the UK on 270 gsm premium satin paper using a 12-colour Mimaki UCJV300-160 printer with authentic Mimaki OEM inks. It is rolled and packaged by hand and available in multiple sizes through the Size selector. Display it in a kitchen, dining room, or living space as a colourful Mexican folk art piece.
