This is the first episode in my Draw It Out series — where I break down my own illustrations and draw out the deeper meaning behind them.
In this one, I reflect on a piece showing the Happy Monito working at his desk while a divine force holds back the darkness. It’s about the spiritual resistance we face when we create with purpose — and why low-energy distractions never push back.
I also share a personal story about painting four Virgen de Guadalupe pieces, the resistance that showed up, and why I pushed through.
