Message
Inspired by the Mayan people of the Yucatan region in Mexico, this portrait was created from a photograph taken by my friend Rodrigo Maisterra. The significance of the painting is to show the connection between the people of the Yucatan and maize which is where corn is derived from. It is said that some of the people of the Yucatan believe that they come from maize or are made up of it.
