Summer 2013

So I didn't do much writing this summer, but I did draw a bunch, especially in San Antonio.

These first two are portraits of people that I'm making up.  Not really for a story or anything, but just because I like to make up worlds and cultures and create histories and such.

This one is a portrait of Zakar and his adoptive mother Zagara.  They are shown in front of their mud brick, thatched roof house in the center of Zoronsport, a coastal trade city of their agricultural society.  He was chosen as the representative of what is considered attractive in their society, and she accompanies him as representative of the majority of the populous' appearance.

This is Naebhum of Naeghara.  He was chosen as representative of what the Naegharan society finds attractive.  The tattoos (symbols borrowed from Hindi) on his arms are reprinted at right and mark his status as a slave.  The one on top is the first letter of his name, and the second represents his particular job as a slave (which happens to be a more prestigious job than many of his fellow slaves, due to the fact that he is so attractive).

This is a little thing I made up at the beginning of the school year to commemorate my beginning my Probability course this year. :)
