This is a low-res version. The scan isn't the best due to the fact I had to scan it in two pieces.

This painting might be for sale in the near future. I'm currently entertaining bids.

Prints will be sold at AnthroCon06.


The image took me a few days (then again I procrastinated). It's of a maned wolf priestess character atop of a Quetzalcoatl Guardian. The Quetzalcoatl's head was referenced off of an Aztec temple of the serpent I had found online. The little bird on the character's is called a Queztal. -- I tried to impliment a lot of Aztec designs (hence the face/skull beads and turquoise)

Media: Watercolor (acrylic touch ups)
Size: 11x14"

Ba-DAMN... if this isn't worthy of masterpiece, I honestly don't know what is! Really, it blows my mind. I seldom like Aztec-based pieces, but you've nailed it. Fantastic job.

Very beautiful

Ferabird Says:

You really managed to capture the aztec theme well; in setting, secondary creatures, and the dress of the main character.

Very well done, and the colors are fabulous.
