Part of a project for Electronic Illustration last quarter.

I really enjoyed this one because I got to incorporate my character, Keet, who made an appearance in a few comic strips for a class last fall. I'm so happy I could finally do something good with him...my comic skills are quite lacking lol.


The style is the result of a combined inspiration of Mayan and North West Coast Art styles, but I chose to use symbolism from North West Coast tribal mythology.

The Killer Whale and Beaver seemed, to me, to relate most closely to the characteristics of the knight of Cups.

Killer Whale: Traveler & Guardian - Symbol of Good (also a symbol of love)
Beaver: Creative, Artistic and Determined
