# Quirky Skull Illustrations This Artist Creates Humors Skeletal Images Giving Life to the Dead By Ady Floyd | Published 2015-08-22 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skeletal-images References: [boredpanda](http://www.boredpanda.com/funny-cute-skull-illustrationsl-pablo-garcia/) & [pabloga](http://pabloga.com/es/ilustracion/dibujos/) This artist created an extensive line of skull images that provide a humorous look at what might happen in the [after life](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/afterlife-generator). The collection contains a vast list of characters that seems to depict people from many walks of life. The illustrated collection feature images of disco-dancing men, a lumberjack and a [mermaid](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-sculptures). Each image embodies the same skull-like face that is connected to a uniquely different body. Some of the images are paired with humorous phrases, but the commonality among all of them is that they are each no longer alive. While each skull image is placed on a vibrantly colored background and decorated with playful attire and quirky accessories, the underlying theme to these images seems to be that everyone shares the same biological being. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Humorous Skull Illustrations:** The trend of using humor in depicting skulls and the afterlife creates opportunities in the art and entertainment industry for innovative merchandise and experiences. - **Personalized Skull Illustrations:** The trend of creating custom skull art for individuals creates opportunities in the personalized gift and home decor industries for disruptive innovation and unique branding opportunities. - **Character-based Skull Illustrations:** The trend of portraying skull images as characters from different walks of life opens up opportunities in the storytelling and animation industries for innovation in character design and development. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Entertainment:** The art and entertainment industry can leverage the trend of humor and personalization in creating skull illustrations for merchandise and immersive experiences. - **Personalized Gifts:** The personalized gift industry can capitalize on the trend of custom skull art to provide unique and personable gift options for consumers. - **Animation and Storytelling:** The animation and storytelling industries can use the trend of character-based skull illustrations to create compelling narratives and dynamic characters for various media formats. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Apocalypse Post Pandemic Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-urban-art.md) - [Creature-Inspired Home Good Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charles-jeffreys-loverboy.md) - [Charming Creepy Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deddy-bears.md) - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Humorous Macabre Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffin-office-chair.md) - [Anatomical Plush Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giant-skull-with-hidden-organs.md) - [Fashionable Zombie Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zombaes-critter-chaos.md) - [Sculpturally Formed Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyber-zombie.md)
