Dia De Los Muertos

I finally finish my four pieces for the next art show. It is a Dia De Los Muertos theme show, so I am super exited to be part of it. However, my art pieces are not very traditional. I cannot wait to see what the other artists created for the show. Soooooooo…If you are in the LA area on Saturday November 3 please feel free to drop by and check us out. Don’t forget to bring some cash; some of us will be selling prints. See you there. =P

Jenny!!

Continuing to practice using digital tools. This time I wanted to draw without using black lines. The result was very satisfying, since it's very graphical looking. I can picture it in a shirt or poster. Also, I used my friend Jenny as a character, since I don't have to spend time designing one. I'll continue to do this until I gain more experience designing my own characters. =)

The Fangs

Another digital project to practice my cell shading skills. I didn't put to much time on the characters, because my purpose was to practice coloring. I just based them off two twins that I know. I'm actually happy with the turn out. However, I will continue to practice, and what I learn this time around is to make my lines much thinner as possible.

Night Watcher

My attempt at drawing and painting digitally again. I haven't done this in a while, so I hope you can cut me some slack. I was going for a cell shaded animation look. If you have any tip for improving my coloring digital skills I will grandly appreciate it. =)

Space Suit

I originally had in mind in doing a humanoid robot, but it ended up as a space suit. Anyway, this is more of a design than an illustration. I did the inking on Velum and place a white sheet of paper behind when I scan the image.

Tea Time

I finally finish my Tea Time piece. This was originally a piece for a flyer about tea and calligraphy, but the event got cancelled. However, I decided to finish it. It's hand drawn. Since this was a design for a flyer that explains the layout.
