Skull Stamps

Okay, so I’ve been fiddling with my new office. Got a bit tired of the colorwashing, been wanting to try something more poppy. Something different. Why not skull stamps? So I bought some foam sheets from the local craft store and whittled a few naked craniums. Hey, it’s better than hearts and buttercups!

Convergence

Convergence. A skull wall?

Semi-finished product -- skull rays!

Call me morbid, but skulls remind me of my mortality. Of course, setting them in sun rays is the irony. No, it’s not finished. I’ll probably fill in the tan in with something (preferably something darker). Then I’ll balance the skull ray wall with Angels and Maranatha doves on the other side. Perfect symmetry!

    1. I like this wall more than the other one that has stipple-y brush strokes on it.
    2. Don’t worry, if you wall me out on it, I will be glad to confirm it in person.
    3. Maybe the tan stripes should have some crow stamps, or some Project 86 lyrics in cursive writing. Or a perhaps gaudy grandma-floral print.
    4. I like making lists.
