after winter ... must come spring !

2011-12-15T14:53:00.001-08:00

again from the calendar

I wish I had more time for the pictures - the client had only 5-6 days for 5 illustrations and wanted them to be done in water color ( witch I like but that takes a bit more time ) , so I'm not at a 100% happy with all of the illustrations and I'll only post these

2011-12-15T14:39:00.000-08:00

I will post more soon maybe ...

my illustrations for a childrens book project

2011-11-25T09:17:00.000-08:00

The book is illustrated by several different illustrators

I'm still not sure when the book hit's the shelves but will let you know as soon as it does ;)

I had a lot of fun doing those two :)

room 403

2011-09-10T10:15:00.000-07:00

summer is kind of over now and rainy days are coming

but summer going away at the office means no ice cold air conditioning blowing in your face or at your back , or your sandal geared feet turning to ice cubes

this is not tiled - I tried to quickly tile it but I didn't like the result

so this is me in the room I am at work with the white bear and the penguins that come to live with us in the summer

some of the skrap in my sketchbook

2011-09-06T02:00:00.000-07:00

some of the sketches in my sketchbook with some color added to them

the last one was sort of a gift

the second one is my sister on her birthday

the first one is some ... sort of bird ... dunno ...

Really random scrapy stuff

2011-08-05T14:17:00.000-07:00

most of those are crops as you see ... there was some reff for some of them - some of them are just things I saw and really liked

I don't know if I like or hate these

colored old stolen sketch from a colleague

2011-07-28T04:13:00.000-07:00

Hi people :) a year ago I stole a bunch of sketches from Nelson - a colleague at work - promised to draw me something many times and just did sketches so after a while I just took them , but he knows about that so it's not really a crime :) I still feel a bit guilty so I tried to make it up to him by coloring one of them in my style . I figured this one is best to be done now :)

Yey !

2011-07-22T14:52:00.000-07:00

Hi people :) I got a pretty picture from Betteo for the fan art pic but the color is mine

Betteo fan art

2011-07-20T09:34:00.000-07:00

Hi people , I did a sketch some time ago on the main character of the latest Betteo graphic novel (comic book ) - he had just sent me the "demo " of the book - 4-5 pages of it . I really liked it ( as I do for all of his stuff ) and did that sketch and promised myself I'll finish it some day properly . So here it is - it's one of the key moments of the comic done in my style ... I still don't know if the author is ok with the picture so I'm posting it with a bit of risk :) anyway I hope you like it

PS : I know it's not called "The Lost Poem " but I like it like that

I hate Iuri

2011-01-31T14:44:00.000-08:00

ok people - where you see a single image of a wip - this is the thing I think is best to keep and that the rest is to go to hell ,but no matter what these are still wips

Blue wip

2011-01-30T13:25:00.000-08:00

I promised a while ago some kind of tutorial and I tried to do one but it turned out a big mess , then I made this wip you see here and I think it's nice but now I feel a bit "not the person to tell you what to do " so I'll give you the stages and if anybody want's some comments advice or a real tutorial I'll make one some day and comment on this wip

Is Art School Worth it? - no

2011-01-30T05:52:00.000-08:00

Not only because of the post on Eric Fortune's blog (and the comments on it ) but because of lots of other stuff ( one of them myself still being a student but not for much longer) I really thought I should make a post about how stupid it is to attend art school . I know that if somebody told me that before I attended I would have thought that he does not wish me all the best , wants to confuse me , or that he himself is confused and does not know any better or he is just lazy or anything ... but things turn out different at the end . I even can say that art schools kill time and opportunities ... It's a big theme ...

I recommend you read the post and the comments below it - it's a lot to read but it's the best advice a young student can get and from some great deal of talented artists . The same post but with some more comments is being placed here .

Any way - wish I knew better ,and at the end skill is what matters

2010-12-15T14:13:00.001-08:00

I'm changing headers a lot and maybe I must keep track of them or at least I think it would be interesting as time passes to see the change

so here's this years autumn and winter one

everybody makes a season final

2010-12-15T13:35:00.000-08:00

this is a piece that no body needs - my sis just used it for some antyhiv posters at 1st of dresember ( the pig was supposed to be the hiv virus that the lady bears around with her no matter what she does ... it's stupid - I know ) . Since it's almost christmass I hope this can cheer you up a bit or make you laugh at me or what ever positive

... it's a study I couldn't let go for a while ... don't blame me

This is not a season final , or at least I'm not planing it like that , but I try to be in the mood with stuff

you saw the happy pig before but here is the whole picture

2010-11-18T09:01:00.000-08:00

I took reference for these from old bugs bunny and hanna barbara films - they have a stile that is easily transformed in today's enviroments , backgrounds and so on - I guess that's because of the resent rush for retro feel in all thing around us - clothes , houses and many more

sorry for bad spelling :(

PS: these are sneak peeks into some stuff for future projects

a November that deserves a post

2010-11-15T07:22:00.000-08:00

yes , this November really made its best ! I'm happy it's so hot , sunny and beautiful despite of the fact that more and more I feel like a lizard pinned to some dusty board on my desk - I'm trapped each day inside even on weekends and I'm missing the best autumn for the last 10 years . But anyway - even trapped inside the sun outside makes me happy :)

wip destructive mode on ...

PS: I'm adding the last two images now ( that means a week later ) cuz I thought more on the color scheme

2010-11-12T07:16:00.001-08:00

BETTEO

2010-10-19T12:25:00.000-07:00

Hi people - I have been chatting a lot with Patricio Betteo lately and I was amazed when he mentioned he drew the sketch you see here when he was hot angry at something . I can't draw when I'm angry - don't know why but I'll do my best to change that cuz it seems really cool and Betteo says it helps anger and all ... so the color is from me done today at lunch break . Hope you like it

btw ... Betteo is mega cool but don't tell him I said that :)

meanwhile at home ...

2010-09-19T11:46:00.001-07:00

hey people - I'm simulating some kind of retrospective post here ... these are part of my room - maybe you remember them from while ago ...

thnks for following ...

2010-09-17T05:22:00.001-07:00

thanks for following people ! I try to keep up with most of you and thank you in some e mail but some of you don't have any info , so this is a thank you card for all of you

I'm drawing for my food now so I can't show anything soon , but will try to

P.S.: I drew the pattern behind the sign :D this is something right ?

tasty chick - a test girl with critics from Liubomir Iliev - LOCK

2010-09-07T08:57:00.000-07:00

ok people, here's a pic called "tasty chick" that I did - some details and at the end an edited version of it by Liubomir Iliev - he fixed some perspective and other quick stuff

I really like feedback and constructive critic , that's why I'm posting the last image too :)

the sign in the bubble says "tasty chicken " or "tasty chick" but in french ... or I don't know - my sis wrote it ... so if it's misspelled she's to blame :D

a talking post ...

2010-08-21T13:58:00.000-07:00

Hi "everyone who actually reads artist's comments and posts and not just look at the pretty pics " :)

I have to say I'm not one of you :) I usually don't read artist comments or notes on the art if it's longer than a few words , and I know it's kind of the "not so pro " thing to do , or at least lot of people think so - I even lost some watchers and followers on the blog and around cuz I'm "absent" , or in other words ... I don't know - maybe not here with my love and anger in words and chatting with people ... I don't know - what do you think ? I think I would just fill the blog with stuff it's not supposed to be here - this blog is for what I do and what I do is for seeing - not reading ... or maybe I should really say a few words from time to time ...

I don't know ... please give some advise ... if you ever read this that is :D
and just cuz I feel bad making a post just with words here are some pictures that I made back home

P.S. : the first is my window and all the junk collecting dust on it ; the second is my Dad collecting honey from bees at our house in the village where i grew up , and the last one is of few of the muffins I made for my sisters birthday last month - she turned 16 ... omg... who cares about these things ...
