CAPRICORN Sketches

Added 2021-01-18 17:00:48 +0000 UTC

And we're getting back to the COSMOS Project, so here I share with you the sketches I made for the Capricorn.

Well, I must say that this artwork has been incredibly difficult to accomplish, due to the events of this month (both because of a lot going on in the company I work for, and because of difficult issues in my personal life)... But, working during the period under the influence of the Sign of Capricorn, it simply couldn't be different.

Capricorn is the symbol of challenges and hard work.

It is a sign ruled by Saturn (the Great Cronos), who is the Lord of Time, that Serious Sage who tells us about the limits of our destiny ...

It is one of the oldest forces within the Zodiac.

With that in mind, I planned that the Capricorn figure would be a more senior man. Someone who gave the feeling of having lived much longer than the others.

His lower limbs, as well as one of his hands, well planted in the ground, after all, is an earth sign that needs to feel what is tactile.

Still, he would show a posture of energy and vigor, since it is one of the 4 Cardinal signs (those that make things happen).

He would have a thick, upright member, ready for action, and a large, heavy bag, almost like a pun about "having balls for any kind of situation".

It is a serious sign, and its tendency to pessimism, generates a very cynical mood.

So I chose a more austere look

And yet, there are possibilities to bloom and connect with lighter airs, so I tried to suggest a flourish movement in his hand.

As a result, I chose to represent an Asian ethnicity, due to its powerful relationship with its doctrines and ancestry, as well as the remarkable energy to accomplish deeds.

I hope you enjoy it.
