Here are my renditions of the Mayan Calendar Day Signs. I felt very much compelled to create them and they flowed very intutively from my hands.
Once I had created them, I was at a loss as what to do next. So they just sat in my computer. In August 2002 I suddenly had the inspiration to color my pictures. Some of them I totally redid others I just colored. I am very please with the outcome.
October 2005 – I just came across this website www.GalacticAlchemy.com with an explanation of the different day signs, all the keywords are from Carol McCloud’s site.
