Journey To The West: Tripitaka's Enlightenment

Description

In 2014, the OpenStage Theatre Company in Fort Collins Colorado performed Mary Zimmerman's Journey to the West. It effected me deeply. The show was... profound. So, on a whim, I decided to take one of the photos from the show and use it as a base for this cartoon scene from the show. This is the moment when, just outside the gates of the Western Heaven, prior to meeting Princess Ironfan and forsaking the ball, Tripitaka encounters himself floating down the river of life and chooses to let himself go. Hence the title and the message.

Thank you as always for viewing my art. Take care.
