Under the Juniper Tree - The Monster and Mab Ipswich

And we are starting February on the right (or left, your choice) foot! I had the fortune of having the opportunity to participate in the super bloody and lovely online magazine Under The Juniper Tree. It was incredibly fun because I had to illustrate an amazing story "The Monster and Mab Ipswich" by Austin Gilkeson. This is one of the illustrations I did. Now go read and see!

Hello! I've been asked to show some of the creatures I created for the Bocachica commission.  I am happy to share them here. I had a lot of fun working on these guys and if you already seen it, you can see the final result here.

Colombian Buñuelos

They Draw and Cook - Colombian Buñuelos
digital painting

Here is the piece I submitted for "They Draw and Cook" . Buñuelos are a Colombian Christmas tradition and I can best describe them as fried cheese balls. Oh no! Did I just say fried and cheese in the same sentence? They might not be all that healthy, but surely they are super good. Besides, it's Christmas anyways ;o) The conscious eating can wait!

The Creature Curiosity Project - Ri-front
digital

I created this half of a "kind of" rhino for The Creature Curiosity Project. The idea is for illustrator to submit one half of a creature or animal. The illustrations will be collected and then share with children in workshops across the UK where the kids will draw the missing half. It sounds fun! I'm even considering doing the back of another creature to submit later on.

Hope you like it... and if you are an illustrator, participate!

NaNoDrawMo - Powerful Idea
digital painting

Sometimes ideas can be too powerful, you know?
47 to go... being Nov. 12th I am starting to think the 50 drawings in November are a bit of a stretch, but I'll keep sketching nonetheless.

My dog

My dog - digital painting

Anyone looking for a pet? I know, he is just sweet!
A few days ago I downloaded some fantastic Photoshop brushes courtesy of Mr. Chris Oatley. And that's how my doggie friend here was born. You might be familiar with Chris Oatley's work, but if you are not, I recommend you go and check him out. He's a great artist and his website and artcast are great resources for artists. He was also in episode 7 of the Escape from Illustration Island podcast.

PS. Haven't got many comments lately... my fault for neglecting the blog. But, hey! I'm back and comments are always welcome ;o)

Anyone said supper time? I have a blast working on this. Truly, the thought of a kid being eaten by a gang of kind looking monsters cracks me up... I mean, in a good way ;o)
