Just finished a image for www.paneltopanel.net Exploring words and pictures for their season greetings card. I did not want to do a regular season gretings card, so I decided to do something more spiritual playing with the idea of Mayan end time myth and the concept of being here now.
The illustration was created for my Digital/traditional illustration workshop in my studio in Playas De Tijuana, Mexico. Students learned how to digitally ink a image in Manga Studio, make hand made textures and traditionally inked shadow. The it is all merged into a single image.
