Drawing on Aztec art
Phil painting Aztec art
Our youngest son Phillip is proving to be a talented artist. Having been commissioned to produce illustrations to accompany several of the articles featured on these pages, Phil has offered the originals for sale: send in your offers...
And more will no doubt be on their way...!
The originals vary between A4 and A3 in size, and are unmounted.
It was Phil, who, aged 15 back in 2003, played out the great Aztecs exhibition at the Royal Academy in London on the closing night on one of our large Aztec huehuetl drums!
