This is a riff on the assignment.

I wanted to see if I could tell a story around the “tracing” idea, so I used Bazaart as a canvas to collage the story of an artist tracing a Mexican Day of the Dead skull.

That scene is over another “memory panel” of him walking away from her, so whatever regrets he has, he earned.

Unabashedly romantic–it must be Getaway Friday!
