Sacsahuamon ritual wedding ceremony by artist Tony Trowbridge.

7oo ad Sacsahuamon (pronounced Sexywoman). City above the Inca Capital Cusco.
A wedding ceremony is well under way, these are the brides, well these are the Bridesmaids, however the similarity to our own ceremony ends. These bridesmaids are to be part of the fun and feastivities after the vows have been exchanged.
There will be fifteen bridesmaids and by the end of the day everyone hopes there will still be fifteen? ALIVE.

Sculpture of Boobies by Artist Tony Trowbridge.


Found Driftwood painted in pink acrylic 12x6inches approx.
I have a friend Jim Bemis a very talented artist who sells very well in several high end galleries notably nudes and seascapes.
Surprisingly he has taken to this sculpture and wants it in his studio in exchange for one of his paintings which is great for me because I could not afford to actually buy one.

el dios del sol negro by artist Tony Trowbridge

EL DIOS DEL SOL NEGRO (the black sun god) depicted in textiles found in Inca graves. A warlike God who has spent the past several millennium hunting down and ritually killing the Daughters of the Sun God.
The banishment of Queen Quelantra from Ollantaytambo in 50AD was the precursor to this war waging, her refusal to leave Earth led to the 50 year siege of Ollantaytambo and final death of the queen.
Before Queen Quelantra's death she was able to piggy-back her complete DNA with all her memories into the Collective consciousness of the human species which is programmed to be released randomly into future females, so ensuring the Sun Gods lineage on the Planet.
