CARNIVAL

This is an illustration I did about a story I have been wanting to develop in many different aspects. From writing the entire story to developing characters and animating it. Abigail is the main character of the story who after losing her family to the zombie outbreak she is faced with the decision of using the knowledge and abilities her family has left with her to either help rebuild a new world or wipe out humans entirely. Before her father, the ring master, her mother, the magician, and her brother, the strong man, lost their humanity, they decided not to leave Abigail alone and infused her favorite stuffed animal with the remains of their fading humanity. The animated version of this illustration IS COMING SOON!!!!

Portrait of Abraham Lincoln

This is a digital illustration of Abraham Lincoln. I wanted to illustrate what I remember the most about what he did as a President, which was to want to preserve the union between North and South. I used one of the most recognized parts of one of his speeches to emphasize my idea of him. Digital painting done in photoshop.




 Detail of the metal plaque on the frame.

Figure Drawing

20 minute drawing with micron markers and tombow. The paper was terrible and didn't allow the Tombow makers to do its magic but it was a good lesson to learn and to see what the possibilities were with that sketchbook.

And Light it UP

FIRST POST OF THIS YEAR!! Oil on MDF board painting of my friend Kim Vega. She was kind enough along with other good friends to help me do some light painting so I could get reference for this traditional painting.

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.
