Leaf Girl


I can't help feeling like drawing plats-related illustrations lately. Nature is all around us, just take a look!! :)

This illustration was made with some old rotrings, and later colored digitally. I had a lot of fun with it!!

So, I keep on working on some illustrations and so, but I'm finishing them little by little, and everything is going nicely. I hope soon I get time to draw some things for myself, as lately I'm only able to do fast sketches, and from time to time. They help me to relax. For now, I can't do more than to go (happily) back to work!

As soon as possible I will go back to my old self, showing a new illustration every week. Till then, have fun and thank you for being there!!

The Little Prince and the snake



"Whomever I touch, I send back to the earth from whence they came" the snake spoke again.

It's one of the things I have been working on lately. I got selected, among other illustrators, to participate in a really interesting project called "Invisible a Los Ojos", to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the creation of the famous book called "The Little Prince", written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. More than 150 illustrators were chosen to illustrate one of the chapters of this famous children's book, with their own interpretation and style.

I got chapter number 17, where the Little Prince arrives for the first time to the Earth and ends up lost in a desert in Africa talking to a mysterious and powerful snake... I was really happy to participate illustrating my own Little Prince (and snake too!! I can't help feeling fond for this character, I don't see him as "bad guy", actually...), I had a lot of fun planning it, and I really tried my best with this one :). This book is being "following" me for a long time, so maybe it was time to do something special for it. Finally ;)!!

If you are curious, you can take a look, at the same time as you can read the whole book (Spanish only), at the web here. Also, my illustration can be found here. Don't hesitate to take a look to others's illustrations, they are really interesting and refreshing!!

But it looks like the journey is still not over... lets see what will happen ;). For now, more information on FaceBook!!

Painting my way

Illustration I made last year, and which I selled as a print this day in my old school. It was really fun to do, I even got some badges with it :D

I keep being busy, but I'm finishing soon all my obligations... or so I think, I'm too perfectionit, maybe? But oh well, I'm fine and quite happy, nothing to worry about, I will go back to my normal self soon!

By the way, actually, I wanted to show you another work today, but at the end I changed my mind last minute. Surely I will post it here next week and I will tell you all details about it. I'm really happy with how all this turned out :)

Hope you have a nice day, thanks for being there!! Have fun!!

Cheese lover


Something fast I made some months ago to try some brushes I made, so here is a little test of a little mouse enjoying his meal :)!

I keep being busy lately, I'm drawing a lot, and because of that I have little time left for myself (non stop mode), but it's alright, little by little it's been done and I'm loving it all, which is always a good thing :)

Spring is almost here, I hope it to be a good season. Have fun!!

500 thanks!



This illustration is my way to celebrate I finally got 500 like on my Facebook Fan Page (but at the time I finished it I actually had more than 500... my bad). I was not planing posting it here in my blog, but why not?

I had fun drawing the number as a train, with its peculiar passengers (romance included?).

This
week I have been working on a special illustration, I think I will can show it to you really soon. Have a nice day!!

Parachuting Cup

From time to time it's good to jump into the unknown (it can be literally with a parachute... or even a serviette, or metaphorically ;)

Again, one of my cups, this one also appeared in my little calendar. Really, I need to take photos of it really soon!! At least one!

About me, these days are being really busy (I think I will be for a while), I have a lot pending work to do, but I'm also quite happy with it, it's forcing me to try new things, which is always nice, to challenge oneself. It's funny how all work comes to you at the same time, I can be quite "relaxed" for a few days (and I mean as working on something for another person, not for myself), and then... there is a lot of work just in front of you!! It's quite usual for any artist, isn't it?, I really can't complain :)

I will tell you about all this work really soon. For now, have fun and see you next week!!
