Ramanjit

I recently found out about The Drawing Board Forum. My first contribution was a caricature of Ramanjit, a caricaturist from India.

Clara, Fernando and little Ian

This past month I haven’t had much time to work on my caricatures. I finally finished this one of my very best friends Clara, Fernando and little Ian. This one is three caricatures in one, so it covers a few posts. ;)

Franco De Vita

Another GREAT musician... Of course from Venezuela. :)

Jack Nicholson Sketch - About Schmidt -

Happy New year 2009!!!

Tia Susana

She is my aunt Susana. I had a very good picture, I think this is very important when doing a caricature, specially for the render and colors.

She is very funny. I miss her very much. I haven´t seen her since we moved to Canada and she moved to Spain four years ago.

My brother Héctor

Yep, here is my own version of my brother Héctor, he has a tricky smile a little hard to capture. However, I think I got it.

Jim Carrey - sketch

I haven't had much time to paint lately. This morning I managed to do a simple study-sketch

Edward Cullen - Twilight

Yeah, I finished it before the movie was released. This one was my first time doing everything in black & white and them coloring it on top...

Work in Progress - Twilight

I should finish it this week...very very busy

coloring my nephew's drawing

My nephew, Juan Diego, is 4 years old and LOVES to draw. He has an obsession with super-heroes and cartoons. A few days ago my brother showed me his version of Robin (or Tobin?) I decided to color it as a warm up exercise this morning. I think he (JD) is very good for his age, look at the details in the uniform. The proportions are not too bad at all. I hope he doesn’t loose his passion and keep drawing. I will encourage him a lot.

Spotlight in Bobby Chiu's Imaginism Studios

I met Bobby Chiu around 4 months ago (July 2008). He not only is an amazing artist, but also a very nice person willing to help you and teach you how to improve your art. This week he surprised me with a small (but very important for me) note about my art, my improvement and my hard work. You probable came from Bobby’s blog, but if don't, you can check it on the link below. Just don’t forget to come back. ;)

Thanks Bobby.

La Nenita!!!

Well, she’s my mom. This has been the hardest I’ve ever done. I don’t know how many sketches I made. I tried different approaches, but I wasn’t happy with it. Finally a little help form a great artist, who showed me a little thumbnail with his thought was enough to start painting, and after a couple of tries this one came out. I’m very happy with the result.

This was the sketch that helped me a lot. Thanks man!

Albus Dumbledore

Albus Dumbledore (actor: Michael Gambon)

I’m really impressed with the improvement I have had in just a few months. I started digita painting this year. Looking at my very first post here, that was one of my fists paintings, makes me feel very good...and there is still a lot more to improve...

The kings of Heavy!!!

This one started this morning as a warm up exercise, but I couldn't stop rendering it. At the end I spent my time on this one, and I didn't do what I was suppose to do today...Yea!!!

Warm up and Subway Sketches

This is my aunt the photographer...a source of good pictures to sketch. check out her website at http://www.mfabbianifotografia.com/

Lets go 3D

It is not always about painting. Sculpting has been something that I find very fascinating. And ones again thanks to the Internet, I found out the name of some materials and the procedure of sculpting, and then it is just learning from the mistakes. Here are my first little sculptures that where made especially for my friends.

Serenata Guayanesa

This is one of my favorite Venezuelan groups “Serenata Guayanesa”. They play traditional Venezuelan music especially for kids. I grow up listen to them and I still do it. One day I’ll put some color on it.
