Task 4: Design your own Day of the Dead skull

Read the Task 4 of Hola Mexico to find out a little bit more about the history of the sugar skull and its meaning in the Dia de los Muertos fiesta.

Once you have read through this, try to design our own Dia de los Muertos skull.  Make sure its bright with lots of geometric lines, shapes and things that you like.  There are a few ideas on the task sheet, but you could always do some research of your own.
