Capri in the casual outfit I sketched months ago. Had wanted to do a proper illustration of her in this casual attire, but I couldn't think of a situation or scene. Then I remembered some photos I took during my last visit to Oaxaca in Spring, and used one of them for the background.

Oaxaca city is famous for its green limestone, which was used to build most of its historical buildings, earning it the title of "La verde Antequera." This is in the former Convent of Santo Domingo, where the ethnobotanical garden now exists. (Capri is not from Oaxaca, you could say she's there as a tourist).

The word chocolate comes from the Aztec word xocolatl, which means bitter water.  Aztec xocolatl consisted of a cold, savory drink made from a mixture of cocoa, cinnamon, aniseed and cornmeal.  They may have used chocolate beaters like this one, called molinillo, to mix the drink.  Today, Mexican chocolate drinks are made by adding chocolate to hot milk and then rubbing the stirrer or beater rapidly between the palms to froth the drink.
