This piece is adapted from the cover page of the Aztec Codex Fejérváry-Mayer. It serves as an homage to the blotter artists who have trod this path before me and lit the way. I redrew all the line work and added approximately 40 images from iconic blotter designs, as well as some Sanskrit mantras and other hidden secrets. I’ve put my own artistic flourishes and doodles into it. It is my humble offering to lovers of blotter art.

The title is a combination of the Nahuatl word Teō, referring to the sacred or divine, and Āmatl which refers to the paper used for codices and ritualistic use.

It is printed on organic blotter paper using food grade inks. Produced by Lucifer.
7.5”x7.5” 900 square grid.

There are no drugs on this paper or any of my designs. I produce art only.

The title is derived from Teonanacatl, the Nahuatl for sacred mushrooms and amatl, the Nahuatl for paper in the context of religious and cultural codices. After close to 30 hours spent pouring over this piece I’ve finally found the right time to walk away and call it finished so it is now awaiting printing.

I began with the cover image from the Codex Fejérváry-Mayer (2nd image), redrew all the linework and added lots of detailing and iconography. This is a love letter to Aztec and blotter art and a respectful bow to all the artists who have walked before me. Honouring a unique and sacred medium.

There’s some coded messages that I’m not sure if anyone will ever decode (but it’s certainly possible) and some Sanskrit mantras for good measure. There’s also dozens of iconographic references and homages to classic blotter designs and designers. I wonder if anyone will spot them all...

(Created using procreate. Will be printed on blotter paper. Just art no drugs!)

I saw someone (I couldn’t find the post to credit them) post their framed blotter art using tinfoil as the mount/backdrop and I just had to try it.

It looks really cool in real life and catches the light and draws your eye.

I love the little nod to LSD culture in that first actual tabs I (and I assume most people here) ever saw were wrapped in tinfoil.

As ever, this is just art, no drugs involved. Please don’t message me asking for LSD as I don’t have any and will just block you!

Allow me to share a couple of my blotter art tributes to the wonderful Victorian artist Louis Wain.
I’ve been a little obsessed with him since seeing many of his original works at Bethlem Psychiatric Hospital’s museum of the mind about 15 years ago. I’ve got another one ready to go to print and a couple more paintings of his I want to translate to blotter. I hope you enjoy these two for the time being!
