Process
This mural was done for Marisa Martinez Jewelry. Marisa is a metalsmith who creates adornment that connects to a rich Indigenous and Mexican cultural heritage.
Execution
For this mural, Marissa wanted to incorporate her heritage and her work. I included her custom jewelry into each sugar skull in this two-story tall mural; for perspective, each Calavera is 5 ft tall. I loved bringing this representation of her culture and business to life.
Detail
In this closeup, you can see Marissa’s jewelry as part of the design.
