This new fad is stemming from "sugar skulls".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calavera

Women are really getting into the duality of the "pretty" and the "toughness" together. Go check out tattoo parlors in a major city near you; there'll be some young girl whincing while getting sugar skulls or something similar tattooed on her lower back or ankle.

It's like the Iron Cross fad; the root of the symbol and its usage far pre-dates the sudden rise in popularity.

Just what's trendy(from the newest of newbies)

I am an old man and several generations older than you I suspect but I will never understand why anyone would want to display something like this anywhere.

Has nothing to do with you and your work. :)

I've never been into skulls and don't do them. I am mildly obsessed with tigers, though. To be fair, I ride a Harley Cross Bones, but I'm attracted to the style of the bike and not how tough a name may sound, haha.

I may not like the subject matter of a lot of people's art, but always enjoy art that's done with great skill and talent; just not going to see me covered in flaming skulls anytime soon.
