A recent trip to Peru inspired these illustrations. The rich culture is present everywhere, from the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu, full of symbols and shadow plays with nature, to the traditional indigenous costumes, rich in color, shapes and textures. 
With all these impressions in my head, I sat down to paint at a coffee shop in Lima on the last day and just allowed all of them to mix.
