Meso-American Gods series in Crayon by Rogelio Lara

Rogelio Lara:

I picked up crayon from substitute teaching elementary. I drew them as rewards for the kids and started to really like what I drew. I started posting them on Facebook to get this girl's attention I got such a positive reaction from people that I kept on going. This particular series - Mythological Dreams - comes from my interest in Mythology - I played Dungeons and Dragons as a kid, and when my Philosophy professor introduced me to Joseph Campbell in community college I realized the importance and insight of the messages behind the mythology which only made me love it more.
