A pale skull with a lit cigarette dangling from its teeth dominates this composition, rendered in cream and tan tones against a deep black background. Skeletal bones and fabric are loosely arranged below the skull in an arrangement that feels both casual and haunting, painted with expressive, visible brushwork that gives the memento mori subject an almost intimate quality. For a study, gallery wall, or contemplative space with artistic depth. Printed to order directly onto lightweight aluminum with a high-gloss finish that makes color and detail pop and resists fading over time. A wood backing floats it about three-quarters of an inch off the wall and holds the wire or sawtooth hanger. Available from mini to large, it is original art with a modern, durable edge, not a quick print off a shelf.
