Description This is another scool work and a FREAKING BIG ONE!!!!! like 24" x 30" ? Everybodie were going CRAZY!! D: my hands are still full of paint..

anyway I love it and I spend like 1 or 2 hours writing the text!! and here it is:

Quetzalcóatl

His name mean feathered snake. He's both connected to the earth by his snake part and to the sky by his feather.

The Aztecs and the toltècs associated him to vegetation and later to Venus. He's one of the four creator god and he invent the calendar. He's worshipped as boss of the priests and the defender of the craftsmen.

Quetzalcóatl recreate the humanity by pouring his own blood on bones that he've stole in the dead's kingdom. He shows to humans how to survive and teach Later, Tezcatlipoca corrupted him by introducing him to carnal pleasures and drinking. After a discord concerning the offerings, Quetzalcóatl is exiled by Tezcatlipoca.

In 1519, when Cortés lands in South America, the Aztecs believed that it was Quetzalcóatl coming back from exile …


verssion originale:

Quetzalcóatl

Son nom signifie serpent à plumes. Il est à la fois relié à la terre par ses écailles et au ciel par ses plumes.

Les Aztèques et les toltèques l’associaient à la végétation puis, plus tard, à la planète Vénus. Il est l’un des quatre dieux créateurs et il invente le calendrier. Il est vénéré en tant que patron des prêtres et protecteur des artisans.

Quetzalcóatl recrée l’humanité en versant son propre sang sur des ossements qu’il a dérobé dans le royaume des morts. Il montre aux hommes comment survivre et leur enseigne la philosophie. Plus tard il est corrompu par Tezcatlipoca qui l’initie aux plaisirs charnels et à la boisson. À la suite d’un désaccord concernant les offrandes, les deux divinités s’affrontent et Quetzalcóatl est exilé par Tezcatlipoca.


En 1519, lorsque Cortés débarque en Amérique du Sud, les Aztèques croient immédiatement que c’est Quetzalcóatl qui revient d’exil…

The colours here are really cool, very luminescent. The contrast of the pink on the dark makes it a very striking, exciting image.

Gorgeous piece. I love the contrast between the yellow and the blue in the sky. Also, the positioning is great with the words being to the side.
One suggestion is to define the subject by using more shades and creating more depth.

I really like the yellow on the dark background. The dragon has good movement and a wonderful expression! It's great how his head is facing the text, like he is reading it! The colors work very well together and the shading on them is beautiful.
