Transformed into Dia De Los Muertos

Transformed into Dia De Los Muertos

Halloween is one of my favorite time of the year. In September I came across a picture from one of my followers on instragram and I had to do it. I traveled to Merida, Yucatan for my vacation and came across some great ideas for my costume, which is "Dia De Los Muertos."

I admired the impressive patterns and colors on the decorated skeleton; so I decided to stick with the traditional look ,but put a twist. After going through many pictures online, I noticed that in Los Angeles the Dia De Los Muertos designs have become very popular in the tattoo world. Also, many have started decorating their homes with these figurines and also inspired in clothing lines.

Thankfully I know a great friend of mine who is a well known tattoo artist in Belize by the name of Wimpas Sosa. He gladly took on the task in transforming me into a Dia de Los Muertos. The painting took twenty-five minutes and I was ready to head out to the party and show off my Dia De Los Muertos Hollywood Style costume.

I had a blast partying with my friends at the Holiday Hotel "The biggest Halloween Party in Belize". I already got my thinking cap on for next year's party. Mark your calendar and see you next year!
