Yipppeeee, desde el principio pensé en hacer algo relacionado con las máscaras olmecas porque igual se me hacen fascinantes y me recuerdan a las máscaras kabuki pero cuando empecé el boceto se me fue la onda, así que dibujé la mascarita aparte, agarré los colores de la vasija de Tlaloc porque en el libro de dónde saqué la máscara utilizaba las máscaras y vasijas de ejemplo de la evolución de representaciones de Tlaloc ( •w•)/
Probablemente no haga el de mañana y me tome descansos cada ciertos días por cuestión de tiempos y pos pa descansar!!!!!

Yippeeee, I was planning from the start on drawing an Olmec mask since I think they're fascinating and they remind me of Kabuki masks a little, but when drawing the mask idea passed over me so I drew a little doodle of the mask I liked separately. I picked some of the colours from the Tlaloc vessel since in the book I got the mask reference from it was using as an example of the evolution of Tlaloc representations ( •w•)/
I might not do the one from tomorrow cuz I won't have time and I might skip some days every now and then to rest too!!!
