 "Renacimiento Y Vida" Life and ReBirth, Digital on Adobe Fresco and Adobe Illustrator by @DeltaTangoMike 2022 Vinyl Print Installation for Reflections of Change Art installation at the Atlanta Beltline  REFLECTIONS OF CHANGE curator: Courtney Brooks instagram.com/cbrooksart/ installation: Reflections of Change IG: instagram.com/areflectionofchangeatl/ Azteca Moderno NFTs on Foundation https://foundation.app/collection/azdtm Atlanta Beltline instagram.com/atlantabeltline/ New City Properties instagram.com/newcityproperties/ Article Online artsatl.org/today-in-street-art-back-to-the-beltline-with-new-project-a-reflection-of-change/ In the Aztec world, skeletal imagery was a symbol of fertility, health and abundance, alluding to the close symbolic links between life and death Mictēcacihuātl - Left Lady of the Dead Mictēcacihuātl, (meaning "Lady of the Dead"), in Aztec mythology, is a death deity and consort of Mictlāntēuctli, god of the dead and ruler of Mictlān, the lowest level of the underworld. As Queen of Mictlan (the underworld), the goddess Mictēcacihuātl rules over the spirits of the afterlife with her husband, Mictlantecuhtli. The Aztecs recognised death as a natural part of the circle of life. Instead of insulting the dead with mourning or sadness, the lives of the deceased are honoured. This tradition is still continued today in the festival now known as Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), which highlights the very different attitude Mexicans have towards death. It becomes colourful and joyful – a grand celebration of life. Coyolxāuhqui - Right Moon Goddess, Headress with Stars (brothers) in her hair Coyolxāuhqui, "Painted with Bells") is a daughter of the priestess Cōātlīcue ("Serpent Skirt"). She was the leader of her brothers, the Centzon Huitznahuas ("Four Hundred Huiztnaua"). She led her brothers in an attack against their mother, Cōātlīcue, when they learned she was pregnant, convinced she dishonored them all. The attack is thwarted by Coyolxāuhqui's other brother, Huitzilopochtli, the national deity of the Mexicas. Huitzilopochtli tossed Coyolxauhqui's head into the sky where it became the Moon, so that his mother would be comforted in seeing her daughter in the sky every night, and that her scattered brothers became the Southern Star deities The Xiuhcoatl - Background Above Fire Serpent represents blue sky vault Noses bend backwards and decorated with star symbols Sun God Tonatiuh - Head Tonatiuh "Movement of the Sun" was an Aztec sun deity of the daytime sky and ruled the cardinal direction of east. According to Aztec Mythology, Tonatiuh was known as "The Fifth Sun" and was given a calendar name of naui olin, which means "4 Movement". Aztec God Quetzalcoatl - Background Below Quetzalcoatl was related to gods of the wind, of the planet Venus, of the dawn, of merchants and of arts, crafts and knowledge. He was also the patron god of the Aztec priesthood, of learning and knowledge. Nahui Ollin - Center Nahui Ollin has been described as the fifth sun over our current world. Nahui Ollin has been described as "the sun (Tōnatiuh) in its four movements. "When the fourth sun ended, Nahui Ollin emerged "from the remnant matter of an earlier age of humanity."

I do not recall what drawing tablet Microsoft was selling but they agreed to host a couple of drawing demos. I had never drawn digitally at this point! I have been working with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop since 2001/2002 but had not taken the opportunity to draw on the screen. I did own an HP laptop that had a pen enabled screen when I started with Illustrator, but it never occurred to me to draw with it. I do no know why. In any case, those demo days at the Microsoft Store in 2011 were my first time trying to draw digitally. The store had some devices and I remember using a Samsung tablet running windows, I drew on the basic drawing app, I think this was Windows 7. Windows 8 was coming and it was called Metro at that time. Then the Surface drops and I know I want one! By then I had started to work with my Wacom Bamboo tablet and got familiar with current tools enough to realize that the best tablets were the ones that came with a pen. By the time the Surface 3 was on the market, I was ready to buy one at full price. The next year the iPad Pro came to the market and now it was a race for the soul of an artist! Since 2016 I have owned both, the iPad Pro and the Surface Pro 4 and my admiration for both machines is still strong. I do not have a preference of one over the other, however, I do see the value in each machine and their capabilities to help me produce the art I need. I still own a Surface Pro 4, the one on this video is a 16GB RAM, i7 Processor and 500GB SSD. More than enough power to help me with my work in the Adobe Creative Cloud including Premiere, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Audition and of course, Sketchable App. Follow my work at @DeltaTangoMike Illustrator, designer, art biz coach and curator. behance.net/dacreativegenius instagram.com/deltatangomike Follow Vector Maestros instagram.com/vectormaestros #SamsungNote10 #SamsungNote5 #DellVenue8 #SurfacePro4 #iPadAir2 #iPadPro #Cintiq21UX #HPprodesk And that means #Windows10 #Android #ios @sketchableapp #AdobeDraw #AdobeSketch #iLikeToDraw #ArtLifeAllDay #DTM #ATL #DigitalArtist #DrawDaily #CreatedWithSurface #MySurface #AztecaModerno #DailyIllustrations #YouTubeLive #Bamboo #Wacom #Adobe #Sketchable Day 6 of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge is all about Adobe Sketch and Adobe Draw, 2 free awesome apps for sketching and drawing that lead to a professional illustration. https://youtu.be/1wH_XHQ-Lz8 I am drawing on 7 different devices on 7 different days. A lot of times we think that we need better/pricier tools to create the art our talents deserve but the reality is we can create impactful art with very simple tools, even in the digital space.

By then I already owned and had tried to draw with, a Bamboo Tablet by Wacom. I say I tried, it was a very rough start to my digital drawing training. As time went on, I admired the iPad from afar and got my hands on a Samsung Note 10 and then a Note 10.1 and discovered how well made the Note was. Eventually, I started collecting devices and aftermarket pens to draw digitally, pens from Adonit and Wacom, but nothing really worked well with the iPad. I’ve had the iPad 2, the iPad Air, the iPad mini and finally: the iPad Pro. Once I heard that Apple was finally releasing the iPad Pro, I was ready to draw with some of the best apps in the App Store including Adobe Draw and Adobe Sketch. I am still enjoying myself!

Day 5 of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge is all about Adobe Draw and Adobe Sketch on the Samsung Galaxy Note 5.

My digital illustration path had not yet started and I knew that drawing on the Note would give me creative freedom at anytime I felt like drawing. I was able to walk into the AT&T store by the time the Note 2 was in stores, and get me a new one since my contract was up. My satisfaction was a bit short lived as every year the smartphone technology has continued to expand to the point that drawing on a phone is not the novelty it once was. Currently I own several Note phones, I collect them really. I want the ability to draw on the go, quick and easy, right out of my pocket. I want to be able to sketch out my ideas before I forget them. And if I use Adobe Draw and Adobe Sketch on the Note and export to Adobe Illustrator then I can finish an illustration for a client! Get you a Samsung Note off craigslist, facebook marketplace, anywhere you can and get to drawing, they are cheap now! Also, the pen I am using is the Bamboo Pen for Samsung Note tablets and smartphones by Wacom. It is worth every penny!

Day 4 of 7 Day #DigitalChallenge continues with the big timer Cintiq 21UX by Wacom and the HP ProDesk lil machine with Windows 10

There is a bit of dust in between the glass and the digitizer but the performance in the display is still the best of all the tablets and computers I have ever used. The 21 inch size allows for the full use of my arm, elbow and wrist to get super clean lines in my art. The Stylus is the right size for my hand and theres a rubbery grip that makes it easy to handle. I buy soft tips to replace the hard plastic tips that the stylus comes with, those soft tips gives me just enough friction to give me that paper and pencil feeling. The HP ProDesk is a new addition, its powered with 16GB of RAM, an i5 Processor and just enough Hard Disk space to house my current digital projects. Its a nice handy machine to give the Cintiq enough juice to produce good client artwork.

Day 1: https://youtu.be/Q6bkS-4pHF8 Day 2 https://youtu.be/AfWrHfsDhgg This is my second little Dell Venue 8. My addiction to tech is rooted in the ability to draw with each device and the Venue 8 is perfect. This Dell is 2GB RAM, 32GB SSD and with the pen, I can draw right on the screen. I bought a Pluggable hub and I can connect a keyboard, a mouse and extra screen all the while charging. I enjoy this little guy!
