So, the inspiration behind this piece struck while driving through a neighborhood in Arcadia, CA. There was this house that had a metal Kokopelli hanging from it's awning (much like the one pictured on the Left) and it got me wondering just what exactly was the lore behind this character. After doing some proper research and learning about his musical ways, I was inspired to draw his son (who doesn't exist in any of the lore) but I felt it would be a fun character to create. Working in complete silhouette and researching proper musical notes were some fun memories I have of this piece.
