Tibexican Sugar Skull

So as promised here is a new Zen inspired design. I think I am gonna do a few of these sort of pieces I am having a blast drawing these out. In this tattoo inspired sort of imagery, I juxtaposed a Mexican sugar skull of sorts with some Buddhist imagery and a Tibetan inspired lotus flower. Hence....Tibexican. Drawn with my trusty brush pen. Its really starting to go... I actually dipped it into ink like a nib for certain effects in here. I will definitely keep it on hand for special effects like dry brush, but I think I need to replenish my stocks. Enjoy!

  1. Tibexican?! you crack me up.
    i must say i am again enjoying your spirally details. i think they really help soften up the graphic a bit and add some whimsy.

  2. Yes, Tibexican. It seemed like a good idea at the time... Thanks for the positive feedback. I I am actually working on a color version of this piece. I scanned it into photo shop and I am messing around with it laying in some colors. I will keep you posted. Swirlies... maybe its all the cinnamon rolls I ate in college...hmmm.
