pirates



this is a card i did for justin's birthday. he always makes cool hand painted cards for everyone else's birthday, so i figured i'd put a bit of time in for his card. hope you like it.

i feel like this could be straight out of some magazine from the 60s.

The colours make me so happy! Not to mention the dancing. An' yer flag! cool cool. such a Jovial image, despite the ominous undertones, dancin' with the dead, and all..
Caution to the wind! Dat da da, doodle dee dee.

i originally had that painting from the show "good times" from the 80's or 70's in mind.
a big pirate/skeleton drunken party with lots or mermaids some flying fish and even a giant squid. but i didnt plan it out well enough..
