Samuel

Few weeks ago I did the first caricature of my baby Samuel. He is almost 8 months old now... :D

Hulk Hugan

This past week challenge on Caricaturama Showdown 3000! was Hulk Hugan. Well, I won first place with my piece. Something cool is that I tried something new for me. I did a small test to make the image 3D.



To see the 3D effect try this: look at them and relax your eyes, so they actually drift apart. As they do this, guide them so the two images drift into three, until the image in the middle pops into alignment as your stereo image. You are now compositing the left and right images on top of each other, and letting your brain focus on this image alone. Once you get it there, you can easily lock it into place.

Duke Ellington

How wants a caricature?

I decided to take more commissions. I will be happy to answer any questions.

Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange

It was hard to get the likeness. I had to do a lot of sketches until I found something that I liked... BTW, Why they always have so much hair? next time I'll do someone bald, ha ha!

A commisioned work

Sorry for the lack of post but I haven't have much time. Here is a commissioned piece that I did a couple of weeks ago... :)

POPY (1946 – 2010),

Today (august 27) died "POPY" (Diony López). He was the most famous clowns from Venezuela, and of course he was very popular during my infancy. I did this small caricature of him as a little tribute.

Also done for the facebook group Caricaturama Showdown 3000!

This is my entry for the Dice Tsutsumi contest and interview hosted by Bobby Chiu at Sketchohlic

It is something different from what I normally do but I think I will be doing more of this things, it was really fun!!!

Tracy Morgan (WIP)

Gerard Piqué

I was invited to participate on a group caricature of the Spanish Football team to celebrate their victory on the Wold Cup. Several caricaturists were asked to draw a player. My assignment was to draw Gerard Piqué. I have to tell that I really enjoyed doing it.
I´ll post the whole team once everybody finishes theirs.

John Cleese

I really enjoyed doing this one. I´m kind of impressed with myself, it took me around 3 hours to finish it. I think I broke my own record :)

It was done for the facebook group Caricaturama Showdown 3000!

sketches

here are some sketches that I hadn't had chance to post.

Pablo Picasso

I really enjoyed doing this one. It is based on Gjon Mili's photography "Picasso's Flashlight Centaur" taken on 1949. I think this series of drawings with light is fantastic, of course you have to imaging it was 1949.

Danny Trejo

Rafa galindo 1921-2010

A very quick sketch of another great great Venezuelan musician who passed away recently. :(

Schnauzer Speed Painting (my dog Kami)

It was suppose to be a caricature of my dog. I'm not sure it ended too much as a caricature but it definitely was a good rendering exercise. It took me around two hours work.

I did a "speed painting" video check it out!

Gustavo Cerati

1 hour sketch.

John Locke - LOST

I Love LOST. Actually I'm watching it right now... :)
I drew Locke a couple of years ago. I'm going to try to find it and post it here to see the difference. :)
I'm happy with the result, it might look like a lot of work but actually it was around 10 hours?

Vane ;)

Well, I've been working on this one for a loooong time. She's Vanessa, my wife :)
I struggled to get a sketch that I really liked in the beginning. And them I just kept rendering and rendering until I couldn't get any further. This is the caricature that I have put more time and effort in.
I’m really happy with the result and she liked it too, so it means it is good :) She is my first critic and support, I wouldn't be here without her. TQM ;)

Bowie Faas

A caricaturist from Holland!
His blog

Eduard Khil

A sketch of Russian sensation Eduard Khil. I did it during my lunch so around an hour. He has one of the funniest videos I've ever seen, check it out... and he wrote his own lyrics.

BTW, I noticed that I've been following blogs using the wrong profile, how that happened? :S

Samuel Andrés

I'm sorry for the lack of post but I have been a little busy with the birth of my first son. His name is Samuel Andrés. He was born on March 31, He weighted 3780g (8.3lb) and measured 55cm (21.65").

Hard to say when I'll be back to the drawing board but I hope it will be soon.

cheers!

Here is the final piece. I really enjoyed painting this one, I like vintage atmosphere (maybe it is just me who feels it) :D

Hope you like it!

Ig

My good Argentine friend from Sherbrooke (Quebec) who live in Montreal, Ignacio :D
I just saw his profile picture and I thought, "wow this is a good one to paint". So I painted him :) (small one it took me a couple of hours)

BTW, he is an amazing industrial designer who was designing a few years ago the cellphones that we know now-days, check this out: link
