Binibining Philippines 2022 National Costume Contest- Laguna

Maria ng Makiling is a breathtakingly beautiful deity in Laguna that protects the animals, forest, and the crops that surround it. With the help of the youth in Laguna, the elements in this costume incorporate the different culture and traditions of Laguna. Through the modern interpretation of this costume, we hope to relive the legend that accords honor to the majestic province of Laguna.

I tried to draw a modified version of the clothing women from the place I live in wear.

AHHH I have three thesis proposals due in 11 days! I already know that thematically I want to explore Asian and Asian American representation in popular American media, but still have to narrow it down.

Here’s some quick character sketches from one of my ideas. I was looking up Filipino legends and found the story of Mariang Sinukuan, a diwata or mountain fairy. She got a little bit of an attitude the more I drew her which is not completely inaccurate based on the stuff I read about her, haha. I might end up doing a big visual development project on her for thesis, but we’ll see how the other two proposals pan out first!

I realized I’ve never posted a full-body draft of these clothes before *o*
