Frankenstein

This is a collection of different elements I added to a larger pool of work intended to illustrate the well known story of Dr. Frankenstein. As part of a group of illustrators I was in charge of creating a logo for the story, and an initial idea for Dr. Frankenstein as well as the environment of the scene in which he retrieves the body parts for his creation.


Finished painting with background.

 Finished sketch for the painting.

Logo for the story.

Photo retouching

These are the two main projects I had to cover in my Photo retouching class. The bottom one is simply a compilation of images arranged in a fantastical and yet believable form. The one on top was to serve as a promotional image for my website and my work. I have been able to observe the usefulness of coffee for some people over the past few months. It gets them through their work.

"Where Will You Go"

If you let yourself dream?? This was a challenging but very fun painting. It was an opportunity to just draw what came to mind and fully realize it. It took many hours and a lot of different brushes. It was also a lot of experimenting with brush settings.

MTA Car Card

This is my design for a possible car card for the MTA. I really like the Bronx Zoo so I wanted to illustrate the relationship between this landmark and the subway system in a playful way. Done in Illustrator with gradient meshes and regular gradients.


Finished poster. 

 
This is a detail of one of my favorite parts on the poster.


 Another one of my favorites.

Fear

This is a poster for a character design exercise I completed recently. It is based on the Myth of Pandora. It was interesting to find out that it was a jar and not a box as it is commonly believed. As all the calamities escaped the jar in the story I decided to illustrate FEAR since It was one of the most interesting ones.



This is a close-up of the text on the poster.
I wanted to show it a bit bigger to make the text easier to read.
