<\/a><\/div>\nHave you ever wanted to be immortalized as a work of art? Or have you ever wanted to immortalize someone you love as one?<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
The 2014 John Picacio Calendar is currently funding via Kickstarter<\/a> \u2014 and that very opportunity can be yours.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
At the bottom of the Rewards sidebar on the Kickstarter page, there is a reward level called \u201cLoteria Legend\u201d.\u00a0<\/span>In addition to calendars, original art, Grande Loteria cards, and other goodies, you receive a very unique opportunity \u2014 the chance to model for an forthcoming Loteria artwork created by me. This final artwork will be a part of the 54-card Loteria deck and game that will be published by Lone Boy<\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This original new illustrated artwork will be inspired by photographs of you, or the person of your choice. The opportunity includes exclusive initial consultation with me, and it\u2019s a very rare opportunity to not only be a part of the making of a piece of published art, but to immortalize yourself, or someone you love, as a piece of artwork for all to see.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
See the big \u201cLa Sirena\u201d pictured above, on the right, framed in black? That\u2019s the first of my 54 Loteria cards. I\u2019m planning to make this entire Loteria deck one of the finest works of my career to date. The first Grande versions of these cards can be yours as part of the rewards in my current Kickstarter campaign<\/a>.<\/div>\n
So what are the card icons that you can become? Here\u2019s a list:<\/span><\/div>\n
