Sugar Skull – Day of the Dead Canvas Print by Mark Tisdale
This Day of the Dead canvas print depicts a colorful Sugar Skull or Calavera which is part of Mexican tradition. The dia de los Muertos is typically celebrated on November 1st and 2nd although the day varies by region. There’s disagreement over whether it’s an Indigenous celebration that has been combined with All Souls Day or if it’s Spanish in origin. Regardless of its ultimate origin, it seems like it has definitely evolved into the day we know in Mexico. I had the pleasure of visiting some colorful Mexican cemeteries during my visits there but I’ve never experienced Day of the Dead first hand – still on the list! But as you can see I was inspired by the colorful Sugar Skull depictions.
I would enjoy hearing what attracted you to this particular artwork? Are you similarly intrigued by Day of the Dead celebrations? Or maybe you are of Mexican heritage or shopping for someone who is? If you have comments or questions you’d like answered, I hope you will drop me a note.
Canvas Prints – Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.
After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.
There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.
After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5″ by 1.5″ stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 5 to 7 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
