Description
A piece of fanart to celebrate the release of Pixar's COCO here in Mexico. Pepita is an Alebrije, chimera-like creatures from Southern Mexican folklore. In Coco, they take the part of spiritual guides for the dead.
If you want to learn more about Alebrijes and their origin, I wrote about them in an earlier post, right here

I saw the movie today, and let me tell you in short, it's absolutely fantastic! I loved every bit of it. I'll try to come up with a spoiler-free review of it soon
