SKETCH-OF-THE-DAY 061


B is for Bachue

In South American mythology (specifically  Columbians), she is the Mother Goddess and the protector of crops.  Based on my very minimal research, I decided that this meant she was a nurturer of both humans and food plants.  The name Bachue, according to the book I have, means "large-breasted"  - that's about as obvious an invitation to draw some gratuitous skin as I will have on this project.
