This week I finished this three commissioned logos for Restoration Community Church
They wanted me to hand draw the logos and go with my instinct with just a few instructions. It worked perfectly and I think they all came out great. This new church is ready to rock everything they are trying to accomplish. I'm glad to have been part of their start. It has been an amazing experience. Thanks. This weekend takes place the 4th Summer Soundview Festival. Like the previous years, I have designed the poster. I wanted to work mainly with lettering this time and I came up with this vibrant design.
Hope you like it and come if you are in NY!!! URBAN NATURE ART ~ Exploring the Environment through the Arts ~ Teen Project at Soundview Park7/15/2013
We are having a FREE 8-week workshop series at Soundview Park for local youth this summer, bringing in teaching artists and guest speakers to talk about art, nature and environmentalism.
The kids will be working with different mediums such as acrylics, watercolors and pastels, and their work will culminate in a showing at the field house at the end of the summer. • Registration is FREE • All registrations must be made in writing, signed and submitted to us by July 20th, 2013. • FOR AGES 13 to 19 years old Here I am, with my two illustrations during the opening reception at the "Women in Comics" exhibition at Poe Park Visitor Center in the Bronx.
TV was there, many interesting people was there and we all had a great time with the artists panel discussion and the wonderful art exhibited there. Thank you Ray and Regine for inviting me to participate in the show. It was a great day! You can still come and see the exhibition, it will be up until July 31st with a closing reception Saturday 27th. At Poe Park Visitor Center, 2640 Grand Concourse, Bronx, NY. It's open from Tuesday to Saturday 9 to 5pm. Some time ago I found this project and I thought it was a really good way to have some fun on a personal illustration.
I created this "Skater Gioconda" wearing one of my designs for BadAss NYC. A self portrait using ink on paper and then coloring it on the computer. You can find it here and also check out all other entries, they are worth!
Since 2010 I've been part of this community of artists based in Spain, Léptica that try to give other artists a platform to express themselves and their obsessions.
As you all know one of my obsessions is coffee. And I couldn't resist the temptation of sending some of my illustrations for this issue. There you have a little interview they did, and one of the illustrations. Hope you like it!!! Hey people, this is my new commissioned work for the Hunts Point-Soundview Park Community Olympics event in the Bronx.
We wanted to reflect the waterfront, the city and the Nature, all together with all the activities that will take place at the event. I think I have it all! Go and chek the event in the New York City Park and Recreation's website |
