"Oldie but Goodie"


I also like to do religious work...After the Mother Teresa I did for my mom...I wanted to do something that I had always grown up seeing...Of course Lady of Guadalupe came to mind. Living in Catholic/Hispanic environment she made many appearances through my childhood...If just felt natural to illustrate her, and the end result was something I enjoyed looking at, to this day she is beautiful to me...(Pardon the EGO)...My technique could always use work but the natural progression of the panel really evolved into a piece with hidden tonal meanings...I think this was also the first time I had worked with gold leaf, its like learning to draw all over again...

Enjoy
