I havent drawn in a long while. I used to love lazily sketching and painting scenery. For a lot of years nothings felt good. But I decided to enjoy my own company and dedicate this hydrangea to Tonantzin

December 9th-12th is the feast of #Antinous as Our Lady #Guadalupe (#Aztec goddess #Tonantzin) Catholic patroness of Mexico. Popular in Latin America like her, #Antinoos is born of Earth and clad in the starry cloak of the Heavens.

@HeartOfChina Thatβs a rather complex answer, really. Mexican Catholicism can be a mix of a lot of things due to colonization. Ex: Thereβs a lot of syncretism between indigenous figures/ideologies and Catholic figures. La Virgen de Guadalupe is a great example of this, as she is believed to have originally been the Aztec/Mexica goddess #Tonantzin. So, in the expression of faith? Yes, somewhat. Specifically in this nacimiento? Not so much, beyond La Virgen.
I hope that answers your question? π
