The Lotería is a game of chance, just like bingo, but using cards instead of numbered ping pong balls. The Latinx community has been playing this game for hundreds of years, there is a chance that you can find one of these cards in every household. The deck has 54 cards, and each card has a different illustration that represent objects and concepts from everyday life. They all have their own personality. My inspiration to draw these cards came from idea to represent some of my culture and to challenge myself with different textures, patterns and colors.
