This is the first in a series about Death. Death comes to us all, regardless of age, religion, background or social status. This image shows Death as maternal, escorting a precious gem into a realm we are not allowed to enter. Watercolor & goache, 22' x 22' Sept 2004

what a terrifying picture. What is the baby drinking? Beautifully done though.

Yet again, the skeleton calls to me.

that's very cool- it reminds me of a series of prints by Hans Holbein I think where it shows death coming to dance people of all classes away. It was especially symbolic at the time because it showed that no matter how rich you were or how poor you were we all have that one thing in common.

I also really like the colors you used and how maternal the skeleton looks.

I've had a recent death in the family and when i saw this i was startled because it brought a suprising comfort. We all must go sometime, and because of this we must learn to embrace death. Thank you

This is very beautiful, which is (in my opinion) rare to see when it comes to deathpics.. Very harmonic and as said, beautiful.. I'm glad I got to see this..
Take care..!

Simple but so effective. Sign of a good artist when you can cram so much emotion into a skull 10

The innocent baby will go to Heaven. Whoever killed him has a different fate in store.

I love the symbolism of this piece. Death looks so peaceful.
