@Thiccest_Bae This is Coatli. She's a mesoamerican princess. She is also a warrior and she can talk to snakes.
Drawing repetitive textures like this is always so meditative.
I'm fascinated by the feather serpents that appear in Mesoamerican mythologies.

And now for day 29 of #swordtember, Ceremony/Ritual, I took some inspiration from the old ceremonial knives of mesoamerican culture. Maybe not the best, I've done, but still happy with the result. One more to go!

Mexico celebrates the National Day of Maize on September 29! 🌽🇲🇽
This mythical grain is the most representative crop in the country due to its economic, social, and cultural importance and has been a basic and fundamental food of the Mesoamerican indigenous cultures.
Los mexicas fueron el último pueblo mesoamericano que formó una rica y compleja tradición religiosa, política, cosmológica, astronómica, filosófica y artística aprendida y desarrollada por los pueblos de Mesoamérica a lo largo de muchos siglos.
Quiahuitl (Rain), Ollin (Movement), Calli (House).
13 down, 7 more to go. Catch the Instagram Livestream tomorrow at 9:30am!
