HAPPY DIA DE LOS MUERTOS KIDDIES!

Please check out this the website DAY OF THE DEAD

Westwood will be looking at a super awesome Latin holiday celebrated in Mexico and many parts South America. Though there are several similarities with the American holiday Halloween, Dia De Los Muertos is very special in that it celebrates the lives of those who have passed on. It is about community, coming together and remembering. Our focus is symmetry, line and pattern. Please take a look at some of the masks (as well as images taken from the website above) that we are currently working on to be a part of this fantastic celebration.
