- Do you know, Dom, I didn't much like the idea of skull art... then I discovered how beautiful they can be! So colourful and joyous, I love this idea of celebrating the dead in such a way.

- Wonderful! I'm glad someone else found these as inspiring as I do. So 'Dias de los muertos' should be plural? I had read that it includes 2 days of celebration so that makes sense... will fix my Spanish!
