Personal: The Jaguar Queen

Katie and I were kicking around ideas for her next project in her Personal Focus class, where she's doing kind of modernize, digital Alphonse Mucha pieces of powerful, iconic women. Naturally, when she mentioned the Maya, I went off.

Katie's idea was inspired by the notion of the jaguar being the most magical creature in the world. Read on for the specs!

Provided, Katie's aesthetic is far more pretty-centric, and less open to nudity, but overall, I had a lot of fun working on this. It'll be interesting seeing how Katie's final piece looks in comparison.

I'd originally planned on doing a full-color version, but I like the sketch here a bit too much; think I'll leave it as-is.
