Self Portrait of my Flaws

Self Portrait of my Flaws

Personal Emblem

​
This symbol, which is a blend of indigenous Taino imagery from the Dominican Republic and Ancient Etruscan references from Rome, is a symbol I developed to represent my work and identity. It features Atabey, the Taino goddess of fertility and the earth, the Taino symbol of the sun and Etruscan concentric circles, olive leaves, and the colors on the Italian flag and the Dominican flag.
 
Based off of a sketchbook doodle and rendered digitally.
