Star Wars Calaveras by artist José Pulido

Star Wars figures reimagined in the form of traditional Mexican art one sees around Día de los Muertos time, by artist José Pulido (who is based in California).

View more here. And behold, there are gocco prints for the buying! Not just Star Wars-themed, and they start at just ten bucks. I love the bicyclist and the furry.

ummm…I don’t see the Star Wars stuff available as prints on his Etsy page. Did they sell out already? I hope not because they would be perfect for my kitchen. My fiancÃ©e wants to decorate it in Dia de los Muertos stuff and I wanted Star Wars, so now we could both be happy! :)

There’s already a Lucas/Dia De Los Muertos mashup. And it’s excellent. Grim Fandango.
