Description

I threw a whole bunch of ancient mythologies in a blender and this is what came out. She is the guardian and guide into the Underworld.

In Mayan mythology, the Jaguar rules the Underworld, and in Greek mythology the three headed dog Cerberus guards Hades, thus the 3-headed Jaguar.

The title started as an anagram of Anubis which I abstracted until it sounded cool ;)

Ink, coffee, markers (Prismacolor and Chartpak), gold pen, and colored pencil.

I kind of like your kind of syncretism.
